WWE has officially confirmed the rules for the upcoming Iron Survivor Challenge at the NXT Premium Live Event set for December. Introduced in 2022, this unique match format has captivated fans, and WWE recently aired a hype video recapping the structure and rules for the returning challenge.

How the Iron Survivor Challenge Works

The Iron Survivor Challenge will feature five competitors in a 25-minute timed match, each vying for the most falls to secure a victory. Here’s a breakdown of the match rules:

• Two Superstars Start the Match: Two competitors will begin the match, with additional participants entering every five minutes.
• Earn Points with Falls: Competitors score points by achieving falls, which can occur by pinfall, submission, or disqualification at any time during the match.
• Penalty Box for Losers: When a wrestler loses a fall, they must exit the ring and serve a 90-second penalty in a designated penalty box before rejoining the match.
• Most Falls Wins: The competitor with the most points at the end of 25 minutes is declared the Iron Survivor and will become the number one contender for either the NXT Championship or the NXT Women’s Championship.

Qualifying Matches Underway on NXT

As confirmed during recent NXT episodes, participants for the Iron Survivor Challenge are determined through a series of qualifying matches. Sol Ruca, Wes Lee, and Je’Von Evans have already advanced, securing their spots for the high-stakes challenge.
