Royce Keys Names Potential Partners For A Theoretical Mixed Match Challenge Return

Royce Keys has named several WWE women’s superstars that he would like to team with should the concept ever return to WWE.

For those unaware, the Mixed Match challenge was a tournament of matches that took place twice in 2018 where men’s and women’s WWE stars would be selected to team together in a tournament format. This would lead to several clashing personalities on the teams, with fans enjoying the less serious environment surrounding the bouts.

While speaking to WittyWhittier in a new interview, Royce Keys was asked who he would select as his partner if the concept returned, pointing to three potential teammates.

“Man. I’m thinking…. I’ve kinda got a three-way tie I’m thinking Rhea, (Ripley) Michin, and I’m thinking Liv (Morgan).”

Keys would also be asked if R-Truth could break him in a segment if he was making an attempt to, with Keys noting that Truth almost did make him break in a recent segment.

“Yeah, he almost did. Calling me Debo, you know, and tucking in your chain. So, yeah, he almost did it. I didn’t expect it.”

Elsewhere in the same interview, Keys stated his belief that his WWE run so far has ‘exceeded his expectations.’ You can read more about that here.
