The hype towards Survivor Series: WarGames on 28 November in Houston, Texas continued during Friday's episode of SmackDown. Triple H and his creative team added a fresh member to 'Team Mexico' and announced the women's WarGames match.
Most fans expected to see that pop up eventually given recent TV, but WWE made things official on Friday night and brought Stephanie Vaquer back for the occasion. She'll join Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss, Tatum Paxley and Bayley in the double cage.
During a quick backstage stop off, Rey Mysterio also interrupted a chat between Cody Rhodes and CM Punk to reveal Rey Fenix as the latest addition to his elimination team. 'Team Mexico' now has 2 slots remaining, which is the same number as 'Team USA' - Cody has only recruited Punk and Je'Von Evans to date.
