When I was growing up as a wrestling fan, Survivor Series was one of the big four.

Survivor Series is actually the second longest WWE pay-per-view, PLE, whatever you want to call it,

that the company has ever had. It goes all the way back to 1987. And for many years, it was the

elimination format and then eventually, yeah, that got a little old. So they got away from it many

years ago. And I was always wondering, how can we don't have war games on the main roster, right?

Because it was like a Vince McMahon thing where he didn't want to do it. He didn't create it.

That's how we kind of got the elimination chamber. Triple Age brought it back to NXT many years ago.

It was enjoyable.

And so now we have war games on the main roster. And I'm thinking, great. Finally, right? Two rings, one cage. It's about time we have war games. It fits in with the Survivor Series theme.

And we've had war games now for a few years. Now, I noticed something, you know, as they were putting the teams together for the men's war games match this year.

And I saw what they were doing and they're building almost like an all-star roster.

Right?

We have a lot of big names in the men's war games match.

But I notice on the baby face side, we have Jimmy and Jay Uso.

And I notice we have Roman Raines, and I notice we have CM Punk.

I said to myself, boy, that sounds awfully familiar.

Well, yeah, it should be, because that's the exact same team that we had last year in war games. The only difference between then and now is that instead of Sammy Zane, we had Cody Rhodes.

And the only reason we had Cody Rhodes is because Seth Rollins got hurt.

Drew McIntyre ended up in the match, so we had Cody Rhodes in the match.

But my point is, there's a sameness to it.

There's a sameness to the same faces and the same teams and the same people.

And really, I'm talking about the bloodline.
