BREAKING NEWS:
The stakes just got raised for Survivor Series as the night afterward there will be a draft between RAW and Smackdown to determine which brand each of the 8 newly signed women will be assigned! In addition to all the survivors in the match receiving future title shots per Survivor Series tradition, the winning brand in the match between RAW General Manager Joe Blanchard's team and Smackdown General Manager Angelo Poffo's team will also get to pick first in the womens' draft!
Since the womens' draft occurs the night after Survivor Series which includes an elimination match among all 9 women on the VWF roster for the newly-reinstated Ladies Championship, the new Ladies Champion will likely be the first pick in the draft- unless it is Trish Stratus who is already on the RAW roster and not included in the draft. Thus it is possible RAW could have both Stratus and the new Ladies Champion (provided it is someone other than Stratus) unless Poffo's team is victorious at Survivor Series.

Survivor Series presented by VWF's RAW and Smackdown brands November 18, Year 1 T-Mobile Arena Las Vegas, NV (Final Third of show, First Third and Second Third are both posted above)
Match #6: United States Champion Bobo Brazil, Blackjack Mulligan, Curt Hennig, Ivan Koloff, and Johnny Saint defeated Intercontinental Champion Harley Race, Magnum TA, Boogie Woogie Man, Brian Christopher, and Gorgeous George in a Survivor Series elimination match
- Koloff pinned Christopher via RUSSIAN SICKLE

- Race pinned Koloff via PILEDRIVER
- Saint defeated Boogie Woogie Man via THREE IN ONE
- Race pinned Saint via PILEDRIVER

- Survivors: Blackjack Mulligan and Curt Hennig

Pay Per View Weekend: TLC- Tables, Ladders, and Chairs the final PPVs to end Year 1! presented by RAW and Smackdown December 22-23, Year 1
Backstage: Smackdown General Manager Angelo Poffo approaches VWF Champion Randy Savage who is getting ready for his match.
- Poffo tells Savage good luck and to watch his back because his tag partners in tonight's elimination match benefit by winning but even more so if they win and Savage is not among the survivors as shown in the last match with United States Champion Bobo Brazil.
- Savage tells Poffo he will keep his advice in mind but (while gesturing toward the VWF Championship around his waist) also says Poffo should have drafted him in the VWF Draft last July when he had the chance.
Match #7: VWF Champion Randy Savage, Lou Thesz, Rob Van Dam, Barry Windham, and Stan Hansen defeated World Champion Tully Blanchard, Buddy Rogers, Johnny Valentine (all managed by JJ Dillon,) Bruiser Brody, and Jimmy Snuka in a Survivor Series elimination match
- RVD got DQd for using VAN TERMINATOR against Rogers
- Hansen pinned Blanchard via LARIAT. Striker, Zbyszko, and the crowd react in shock as Hansen just pinned the current World Champion who is just the 2nd elimination of this match! Blanchard reacted irate and accused the Horsemens's enemies Brody and Snuka of not attempting to make a pin save for him. Before departing, Blanchard ws seen giving instructions to Rogers and Valentine which appeared tellig them to make sure Brody and Snuka are not among the survivors of this match.
- when the action resumed, the much anticipated faceoff between Hansen and Brody occurred for the first time in a VWF ring since Hansen signed with the VWF
- Hansen and Brody brawled out of the ring where Valentine threw Brody a steel chair which Brody instinctively caught and used to smash Hansen in the head to get DQd. Snuka accused Valentine of intentionally getting Brody DQd by throwing him the chair yet the match resumed.
- Savage pinned Valentine via FLYING ELBOW SMASH. As a result, Rogers was left with just his enemy Snuka as a tag partner against 4 opponent on the other side.
- Thesz pinned his former friend and tag partner Rogers via GRECO-ROMAN BACKDROP.
- Dillon left the ring with Rogers telling Snuka "you're on your own"
- during the next fall, Hansen got mad at Barry Windham for making a pin save for their teammate Savage
- Thesz got counted out after kicking out of 2 SUPERFLY LEAPS but then rolling out of the ring and being unable to get back up and into the ring to beat the referee's 10 count. Hansen was in the vicinity and apparently could have thrown Thesz back into the ring to keep him in the match but did not do so.
- Savage pinned Snuka via FLYING ELBOW SMASH after a spirited battle between them. Afterward, Savage offered Snuka his hand as a sign of respect and Snuka accepted it.
Survivors: VWF Champion Randy Savage, Barry Windham, and Stan Hansen
- as a result, Windham and Hansen (who remains undefeated in the VWF) both earn title shots but if they want to challenge Savage they will first have to defeat him in a non-title match since Savage also survived this match.
- as they got their hands raised in victory, Hansen suddenly turned on Windham (less than 1 week after they together defeated the VWF Tag Team Champions Road Warriors in a non-title match on RAW) and hits him with a LARIAT to end the show.
End of Show.

It is now time for the 1st RAW following yesterday's Survivor Series PPV featuring the VWF Ladies Draft!
Vegas Wrestling Federation (VWF) RAW #48 November 20th, Year 1
commentators: Matt Striker and Larry Zbyszko
In the Ring: RAW General Manager Joe Blanchard and Smackdown General Manager Angelo Poffo.
- Blanchard and Poffo make their picks of the VWF Ladies Draft for the RAW and Smackdown brands respectively:
- RAW selects Jazz - Smackdown selects Sherri Martel - RAW selects Nora Greenwald - Smackdown selects Rockin Robin - RAW selects Tina Moretti - Smackdown selects Leilani Kai - RAW selects Judy Martin - Smackdown selects Princess Victoria
VWF Ladies rosters
RAW Ladies Champion Trish Stratus (already on roster prior to the draft) Jazz Nora Greenwald Tina Moretti Judy Martin
Smackdown Sherri Martel Rockin Robin Leilani Kai Princess Victoria
- Striker and Zbyszko commentary notes: a surprise by RAW with the first pick of selecting Jazz over 3 times Ladies Champion Sherri Martel but Jazz was the final wrestler eliminated in the Ladies Championship match yesterday at Survivor Series and Blanchard apparently saw something he liked in Jazz. To balance out the female portion of the rosters, Smackdown is guaranteed that the next female talent signed to the VWF will be assigned to Smackdown.
