It was the second flagship event produced by the Real American Freestyle (RAF) promotion, and aired live on Fox Nation.
Background
Tickets for the event went on sale through Ticketmaster on September 18, 2025.[3] The event was rescheduled from its original date of November 8, 2025, as that would have conflicted with a Penn State Nittany Lions football home game.[3]
Commentary for the event's live Fox Nation broadcast was provided by Kurt Angle, Bubba Jenkins, Bo Nickal, and Julianna Peña.[4]
Kyle Snyder suffered a knee injury prior to the event, and was replaced by Alexander Romanov.[5]
Roman Bravo-Young suffered an injury prior to the event, and was replaced by Matt Ramos.[6]
Andriy Yatsenko was replaced by Austin DeSanto.[6]
