A mixed tag team match is a mixed-gender or mixed-size tag team match, where wrestlers of a designated category compete in a tag team match. In WWE a mixed tag team match is held when a male wrestler teams up with a female wrestler to take on another Intergender tag team.

Unlike the normal tag team matches, only the wrestlers of the same category can be legal to compete. For example, if a male wrestler tagged a female wrestler the opponent female wrestler will automatically become the legal person without getting the tag and the same things apply to the male wrestlers.

There are also several intergender tag team matches in the industry, where the matches are held under the normal tag team rules, where only tagged wrestlers are legally allowed to compete inside the ring, irrespective of gender. For example, a male wrestler can fight a female wrestler unless and until one tags the other.
