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

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...

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
