It's been nearly two decades since Celebrity Deathmatch threw the first punch. The animated celebrity fantasy fight series debuted on MTV in 1998. Get ready for a serious case of nostalgia because the show is slated to return to television on MTV2, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Much as changed in society since the show first aired. Social media and the internet will play a big part on the modern show-including ring renditions of celeb Twitter beefs (Maybe a Kardashian-Rose fight?).

The clay pop culture wrestlers are ready for round three. The original series ran for 75 episodes on MTV from 1998-2002 before it was canceled. It came back on MTV2 in 2005 but was again canceled for a second time in 2007.

Third time's the charm.
