The 2024 Survivor Series: WarGames will be the 38th annual Survivor Series professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming event produced by WWE.

Production
Background
Survivor Series is an annual gimmick pay-per-view (PPV) and WWE Network event, produced every November by WWE since 1987. The second longest running pay-per-view event in history (behind WWE's WrestleMania), it is one of the promotion's five biggest events of the year, along with WrestleMania, SummerSlam, Royal Rumble, and Money in the Bank.[1][2] The event is traditionally characterized by having Survivor Series matches, which are tag team elimination matches that typically features teams of four or five wrestlers against each other.[3] On September 19, 2022, however, WWE executive Triple H announced that instead of Survivor Series matches, the 2022 event would feature two WarGames matches, one each for the men and women that would be 5-versus-5, marking the first time for a main roster WWE event to feature the match.[4] The 2022 event was in turn renamed as Survivor Series: WarGames.[5] WWE's developmental brand NXT previously held an annual WarGames event from 2017 to 2021.
On August 1, 2024, Triple H announced that it was a done deal to bring this year's event to Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canadaa.[6]
Storylines
The event will include matches that resulted from scripted storylines. Results were predetermined by WWE's writers on the Raw and SmackDown brands,[7][8] while storylines were produced on WWE's weekly television shows, Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown.[9]
