The iron Survivor Challenge is NXT’s signature match for Deadline. The men’s and women’s matches are 25-minutes long and feature five wrestlers, with two starting the match and the rest entering at intervals. Any wrestler that is pinned, disqualified, or submits then has to enter the penalty box for 90 seconds, with the wrestler scoring the most points by the end of the 25 minute match winning. The winners earn future title shots at the NXT Championship and NXT Women’s Championship, respectively.

NXT Deadline takes place on December 6th from Tech Port Center at San Antonio, Texas. The show airs live on Peacock and Netflix internationally.
