The rules for the Iron Survivor Challenge are as follows:

  • Five superstars will compete in this unique 25-minute Match as they battle each other and the clock.
  • Two superstars will start the match and every five minutes a new superstar will enter the match until all five are in the ring.
  • The goal is to have the most falls when the clock hits 25 minutes.
  • Falls can be won at any time via pinfall, submission or disqualification.
  • When a superstar scores a fall they will earn one point.
  • However, when a superstar loses a fall, that superstar must pay the penalty. They are forced out of the ring and into a penalty box for 90 seconds.
  • Once the 90 seconds are up, the superstar can re-enter the match.
  • The superstar who has scored the most falls when the clock hits 25 minutes will be named the Iron Survivor.
