The Kinektic team formatted event featured four competing squads, each comprised of five world-class grapplers, in a tournament consisting of semifinals and a championship final. The one-night Kinektic tournament consisted of bouts with eight-minute time limits. Losers of the semifinal matches were eliminated; as well as fighters whose matches ended in draws.

“Sinasanay namin ang aming mga mandirigma upang sugpuin ang malakas na emosyonal na reaksyon sa harap ng kahirapan, upang tiisin ang sakit na pisikal at emosyonal, at mapagtagumpayan ang takot sa pinsala at kamatayan. Hindi mabawasan ng militar ang kasidhian ng pagkakondisyon na iyon nang hindi negatibong nakakaapekto sa kakayahan sa pakikipaglaban ng aming militar. Ito ay isang Catch-22.

Dapat itong magbago. Kailangan nating sanayin muli ang ating mga mandirigma sa kung ano ang tumutukoy sa tagumpay para sa kanila.”
