Get ready, wrestling fans! WWE has announced that NXT Deadline 2024 is heading to Minneapolis on December 7 at none other than the historic Minneapolis Armory. During a fiery segment on NXT, General Manager Ava took to the ring with the always-lively Robert Stone and Stevie Turner to unveil the big news. But this wasn’t just any promo segment – as always, Stone’s mouth got him in trouble, ending with a lights-out Gore from none other than ECW legend Rhyno.
This year, the Iron Survivor Challenge returns as the headliner for Deadline. Known as NXT‘s most grueling and unique match type, the Iron Survivor pits multiple competitors against each other in a timed battle for the chance to snag a championship shot. Past winners have experienced mixed fates in their title pursuits: inaugural winners Roxanne Perez rode her victory to NXT Women’s Champion glory, while Grayson Waller’s reign hopes were dashed by Bron Breakker. In 2023, Trick Williams followed suit with a championship victory, while Blair Davenport faced defeat at the hands of Lyra Valkyria.
With Deadline just around the corner, the Minneapolis Armory is gearing up for the ultimate clash of NXT‘s hottest prospects. Will the Iron Survivor Challenge shape the future of NXT champions yet again? December 7 is set to be a milestone night, and Minnesota’s ready to play host to what’s sure to be an unforgettable showdown.
