WWE will again present a December house under the Starrcade banner when WWE travel to Georgia on December 1st.

Leaning heavily on southern states nostalgia as they have in prior years, the company will tape the event emanating from Duluth's Infinite Energy Center to be condensed into a one-hour special on the WWE Network later that night.

The company has thus far confirmed Seth Rollins, Becky Lynch, AJ Styles, Kofi Kingston, Bayley, Sasha Banks, Charlotte Flair, Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns as per the poster, with a wide-ranging mix suggesting that it won't adhere to the rules of the draft taking place in October.
