WWE Has Discussed Bringing the Iron Survivor Challenge to Its Main Roster
WWE has discussed bringing the Iron Survivor Challenge to its main roster, which includes Raw and SmackDown.
The match is a feature of NXT, WWE’s developmental brand, and has been part of its championship picture.
Five wrestlers compete for 25 minutes, with timed entries and penalties, and the winner is the one who scores the most falls.
The match is usually held at NXT Deadline, but NXT TLC will replace Deadline this December, and the challenge is not on NXT’s schedule.

A source said the match could fit into the WWE title picture, but whether it will debut on the main roster remains unclear.
