as of 6.0.3 Patch this quest is bugged, if you want to do this quest, you have to kill the big mechanical boss from 100% health to 0% in 1-2 seconds, otherwise yout faction's fighter will begin running around arena and killling the mechanical boss will not make your fighter to stop running, he will just disappear and enemy faction's fighter will stay in middle, but final dialogue between fighters will not happen and later you get "quest failed", again, you have to kill mechanical boss BEFORE your fighter begins running around.
someone report it to Blizzard (GMs), please

What to do
Description
It seems we have a special request! I have here a note from one Kelsey Steelspark, requesting to enter the cage and settle a dispute. She's asked for you to be her partner, {name}. A fan of your previous victories? Or perhaps you're acquainted outside the ring? I wouldn't back down now if I were you. This is the grand finale...

I've studied the gate here for years, trying to find a way of entry that wouldn't disturb any of the ancient architecture just behind it. It figures a few overgrown earthquakes decided to muck the whole thing up! But what's done is done, and the entrance to Uldum is revealed.
