If you are unfamiliar with the rules of the Iron Survivor challenge, they are as follows.
- The match has a timer of 25 minutes as two competitors will begin the match and a new competitor will join the field every five minutes until the 15 minute mark.
- The objective is to earn the most points before the time expires. Points are earned by scoring a pinfall, submission or being the victim of a disqualification.
- The loser of a fall must go into the penalty box for 90 seconds.
- Should there be a tie for the most falls, sudden death overtime will feature between the tied parties.
