Iron Survivor Challenge qualifying matches official for WWE NXT

Iron Survivor Challenge qualifiers have been announced.

On social media Saturday, NXT GM Ava announced the first two qualifying matches for the Iron Survivor Challenge that will take place at NXT Deadline on December 7 in Minneapolis. For the men, Wes Lee will face Cedric Alexander. Meanwhile, Cora Jade will face off against Sol Ruca.

Wes Lee in recent weeks has been targeting Alexander’s tag team partner Je’Von Evans, with the two facing off on Tuesday during NXT’s event at the former ECW Arena. Thanks to Rob Van Dam’s assistance, Evans won the match after hitting a frog splash.
