#3 The Grizzled Young Veterans and MSK advance to the second round of NXT Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Tournament.
The first match of NXT Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Tournament saw the last year's finalists Grizzled Young Veterans taking on the team of Ever-Rise. After a spectacular battle, which was by far, Ever-Rise's best performance in the Black and Gold brand, the former NXT UK Tag Team Champions came on top.
The duo of James Drake and Zack Gibson are the favorites to win the tournament due to their performances in the past year, and most importantly, because NXT needs real tag teams to be competing for the title.
In the second of the tournament, former IMPACT Wrestling champions, The Rascalz, made their highly-awaited NXT debut against the team of Isaiah 'Swerve' Scott and Jake Atlas. It was clear from the very moment their opponents came out that Scott and Atlas have come as far as they can in this tournament.
Dubbed as MSK, the debutants put up an incredible performance and displayed their tremendous athletic abilities. The match proved to be a perfect launch-pad for them, and they can be expected to go a long way in the tournament by having competitive clashes with experienced teams.
