Stephanie Vaquer is back on WWE television, and she picked the November 13 episode of SmackDown to do it. She joined Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss, Tatum Paxley and Bayley in a ringside fight against Jade Cargill's group and Fatal Influence. Her arrival helped the babyfaces turn the numbers around, and Flair went on to beat United States Champion Jacy Jayne in their non-title match. Afterward all five women stood together and shouted “WARGAMES!” as a challenge heading into Survivor Series, which is scheduled for November 28. Cargill's side has six possible names, so WWE has a lineup question to settle before the show.

Stephanie Vaquer Joined the Fight After Jade Cargill and Fatal Influence Backed Jacy Jayne

Flair and Jayne were still in the middle of their match when the fighting spread around the ring. Bliss and Paxley got involved, and Lainey Reid and Fallon Henley came down from Fatal Influence's side.

Cargill showed up with Michin and B-Fab, who hold the Women's Tag Team Championship, and that gave the heel side the bigger group. Bayley ran out to help Flair, but the babyfaces were still outnumbered right up until Vaquer made her entrance.

The former Women's World Champion went straight into the brawl and started clearing space for her side. Jayne went for a kick on her and missed, which gave Flair the opening she needed. Flair hit Natural Selection and pinned Jayne for the win.

Vaquer had already wrestled at a WWE live event in Portland on November 5, where she teamed with IYO SKY and Lola Vice to beat Fatal Influence in six-woman tag match.

SmackDown still marked her return to WWE television, since she had been off TV after losing the Women's World Championship to Liv Morgan at Money in the Bank.

Charlotte Flair's Team Has Five Names While Jade Cargill's Side Has Six

The segment ended with Flair, Bliss, Paxley, Bayley and Vaquer standing side by side and issuing the challenge with one word: “WARGAMES!”

Cargill's group, meanwhile, has six possible participants: Cargill, Michin, B-Fab, Jayne, Reid and Henley. If WWE keeps the match at five women per team, somebody on that side sits out, or Flair's team picks up another member.

For anyone newer to the format, WarGames is a cage match fought in two rings. One wrestler from each team starts it, the rest come in at timed intervals, and a pinfall or submission only counts once everyone has entered.

Because of that, the roster for each side matters more than it does in a normal tag match.

Nothing got announced about that last spot during SmackDown. WWE has since confirmed the match for Survivor Series, with Michin and/or B-Fab listed alongside Cargill and Fatal Influence.
