WWE(R) Superstar John Cena(TM) and an elite group of mentors from the nation's most exclusive military units - Navy Seal Commander Rorke Denver, Army Sergeant Noah Galloway, Marine Gunnery Sergeant Tawanda "Tee" Hanible and Army Ranger Nick "The Reaper" Irving - will push sixteen fierce men and women beyond their limits while instilling in them the ethos of leaving no teammate behind. With up to a million dollars of prize money at stake, these competitors will work together with only two options: to persevere and win or give up and "ring out".

WWE Superstar John Cena and the cadre reveal the next evolution that will test the competitor's resourcefulness and ability to think on their feet, as they are challenged to break down and set up camp. With the teams suffering mentally and physically, the cadre will be forced to strategize how best to lead their teams, because only one team will shine during the evolution and be safe from facing "The Circus". With up to a million dollars of prize money at stake, these competitors will work together with only two options: to persevere and win or give up, "ring out" and go home.
