What is a Survivor Tag bout on Misfits?

  • Fighters can tag in and out of the match.
  • A fighter is eliminated if they refuse to enter the ring after being tagged.
  • Elimination also occurs via knockdown, knockout, or a corner stoppage.
  • After an elimination, the next fighter to enter is determined by rotating clockwise from the corner of the eliminated participant.
  • The match consists of six rounds, each lasting three minutes.
  • The fighters in the ring automatically change at the conclusion of every round.
  • Fighters receive 8 to 10 points per round based on performance; fighters not tagged in automatically receive 9 points.
