Lord TSC

This sounds like it could be really fun


12-episode series
Tuesday nights beginning Jan.16 at 10 p.m. ET/ 7 p.m. PT. airing on Facebook Watch exclusively in the U.S.
Single-elimination mixed tag-team tournament to win $100,000 to support the charity of their choice
20-minute episodes
Fans will be able to directly influence and interact with the in-ring action, follow the rivalries and storylines in between events, and connect with one another as the drama unfolds

Participants: Alexa Bliss, Becky Lynch, Alicia Fox, Bobby Roode, Asuka, Carmella, Bayley, Charlotte Flair, Braun Strowman, Jimmy Uso, Enzo Amore, Lana, Finn Bálor, Naomi, Goldust, Natalya, Nia Jax, Rusev, Sasha Banks, Sami Zayn, The Miz, Shinsuke Nakamura, a member of the New Day TBD by fan vote, and a male member of Raw TBD by fan vote.


I'd guess this could be Enzo and Nia Jax winning to do their story. But there could be some other fun teams too; Asuka and Strowman would be hilarious together :P

Bobby Roode and Charlotte also announced.

Strowman and Bliss is a great pick just for the visual alone I'd say she would just come to up his hip.

Balor and Bayley have great chemistry and definitely like eachother away from the ring, so it's an obvious pairing that the crowd will get into. Which is why it won't happen!

J. Marston

Becky and Balor! Irish duo to win it.

Pentecost

Finn and Sasha teaming up for this.

And they even announced it on Rusev Day!

Lord TSC

Jimmy USO and Naomi paired up.

Also, Anita Ajax and Apollo (who was added to replace Enzo).

Pentecost

Anita Ajax is a much better name for her

Lord TSC

Jesus, my iPad's autocorrect seems to be getting worse...

It’s true. Facebook Watch is currently only available for the US.

Hopefully WWE will be able to air it on the network outside of the US even on a week delay.

The Miz & Asuka the latest pairing revealed for the Mixed Match Challenge.

Lord TSC

That's a fun team.

Furious-Red

I can see Miz receiving a Asuka lock after they get eliminated

CastorTroy

I'm hoping we get to see some ineteractions with these teams. Though will they be on the main shows or exclusive to facebook as well? Lie will we have Asuka as a guest on MizTV on Raw?
I'd say it's a possibility if they need to promote it

Lord TSC

Alicia Fox and Goldust also announced.

Shinsuke paired with Natalya.

Becky and sami announced

What's with the partnerships? And having faces and heels team up? It's so random

And selling it like a legend.

CastorTroy

So who are the favourites so far? I'm thinking Alexa/Braun vs Flair/Roode in the final.

If they don;t do a bit where Flair and Roode accidentally put on each other's robes, I'll be disappointed. Or even one puts on the wrong robe

DM_7

Sami with RKO hoody. Step up or down from the Sports Direct Lonsdale jacket he used to have?

Not sure how reliable since when has the mirror had coverage of wrestling but would be great news

Pentecost

The Mirror covers wrestling quite a lot these days if their Twitter is any indication.

Lord TSC

OMG! We're getting Balor vs Nakamura!
