Dubbed "The Match Beyond," WCW's brutal battle locked Superstars inside a caged ring with only one way out: forcing your opponent to submit or surrender. Learn all about WarGames, and check out exclusive photos and videos.

Personally, I would love to see a modern, WWE take on this and have them bring it back. For the last several years now, to spice up Survivor Series, I've suggested they utilize the Scramble Match feature as a permanent draw to the PPV, along with the Traditional Survivor Series Tag matches. Along with those, I've also suggested bringing back War Games to the PPV as a permanent annual match, but again, modernize it. Instead of two rings, just utilize their one (since WCW's ring was almost half the size of what WWE's current ring is now). Basically, make it a HIAC Tag Team Elimination Match. Maybe that wouldn't work so much with the HIAC PPV happening one month prior, but perhaps instead making War Games a permanent feature for HIAC and the Scramble a permanent feature at Survivor Series?

Either way, this was just one of the few reasons I miss WCW, and I wished it would come back. The match, not the company.

Whenever someone mentions the screamble matches, all I think is mah boi Spanky being a 1-time middle-of-the-match World Heavyweight Champion.

They could use the Elimination Chamber but have teams instead of every man for himself. It's in their video games after all

What was that match where they had 3 cages on top of each other? I could google it, but I'm lazy, but that was mental. Remember seeing Kanyon thrown off the top of one.

They could definitely spice survivor series up though.

I think that was just called the 'triple cage'. Do you mean the match that was featured in the climax of the best movie ever made, Ready to Rumble.

Haven't seen the movie, but yeah.



That.
