Mick Foley reveals Iron Survivor Challenge qualifying matches for WWE NXT

Posted: Nov 6th 2023 By: CMBurnham

The Iron Survivor Challenge qualifying matches for NXT this week have been announced.

Mick Foley posted a video to Instagram on Saturday revealing that Dijak vs. Tyler Bate and Fallon Henley vs. Tiffany Stratton have been added to the lineup for Tuesday's show.

"Hello NXT, it's the hardcore legend here, WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley and I'm so excited because HBK Shawn Michaels has granted me the honor of selecting the qualifying matches this week for the Iron Survivor Challenge," Foley says in the video.

"Let's start with the women. Now, I've been watching NXT's women's division for a long time and It's extremely strong. Two of the top women I want to specifically talk about, Fallon Henley and Tiffany Stratton. Now, their match last week never took place due to Tiffany's attack so I say we absolutely see that match this week, and we up the stakes just a wee bit with the winner punching their ticket to Deadline."

"As far as the men, two guys I've been watching a long time, long before any of you knew their names, Dijak, always thought this guy was a future champion but in order to get to Deadline, Dijak will have to get past a guy I've known and followed since he was a teenager, the big strong boy Tyler Bate. It's going to be a great match-up of different styles. I can't wait to see these matches this Tuesday on NXT."

WWE announced the men's and women's Iron Survivor Challenge matches will return at NXT Deadline on December 9 in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The 25-minute match is won by the wrestler who accumulates the most points, which can be earned through pinfalls, submissions, or being the victim of a disqualification. Pinned, submitted, or disqualified wrestlers are sent to a penalty box for 90 seconds before being allowed to return to the match. Grayson Waller and Roxanne Perez won last year's matches at NXT Deadline 2022.
