The series will be for 12 weeks, and the duration of each episode will be 20 minutes. This would put the finale on Tuesday, April 3, which is the week preceding WrestleMania 34. 205 Live will continue to air, after the Mixed Match Challenge.
According to the Daily Mirror, the Mixed Match Challenge will air exclusively on the WWE Network for the UK audience. This is due to Facebook Watch being unavailable in the United Kingdom.
The project is spearheaded by former NXT and current SmackDown Live writer Ryan Ward, who was aware that UFC ran fights on Facebook for a while. As a result, the idea was pitched, and approved by executives. Moreover, reportedly, neither Vince McMahon nor Kevin Dunn are heavily involved in this project
here are the teams who will compete in the challenge.
