It turns out that the winning team of season 2 of the Mixed Match Challenge will get more than just bragging rights. They are going to be getting a major advantage for the Royal Rumble in 2019.
You can check out my latest WWE predictions video on Youtube: Wrestlemania 41 predictions: John Cena vs Cody Rhodes.
According to WWE, the winning team will get to enter their respective Royal Rumble matches in the 30th spot. Here is what they posted:
“WWE.com has learned that the stakes for WWE Mixed Match Challenge Season 2 have gotten positively Royal!
In addition to earning supreme bragging rights over nine other elite mixed tandems, the winning Superstars of this season’s 14-week round robin event will receive the coveted 30th entry in their respective Royal Rumble Matches in January 2019, giving them a greater opportunity to win the celebrated free-for-all before going on to headline WrestleMania. In addition, they will receive an all-expenses paid vacation to anywhere in the world.
