While Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez won the Women's Dusty Cup at NXT TakeOver: Vengenace Day, the men's tournament went to MSK. Formerly known as The Rascalz in IMPACT Wrestling, the young duo wowed the world in the finals against the Grizzled Young Veterans.

Following an incredible flurry of moves from both sides, Nash Carter and Wes Lee just about managed to defeat Zack Gibson and James Drake to win the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. This was the first time that the tournament final was contested between two legitimate tag teams.

Usually, the Dusty Cup is won by a pair of singles stars. Finn Balor and Samoa Joe were the inaugural winners in 2015, while Aleister Black and Ricochet won it in 2019. Even though their on-screen chemistry would glow, Matt Riddle and Pete Dunne were not together before their victory in last year's tournament.

It seemed likely that Tommaso Ciampa and Timothy Thatcher would win the Dusty Cup, but their elimination on NXT left us pleasantly surprised. MSK vs. GYV at NXT TakeOver: Vengeance Day was a proper showcase of tag team wrestling and how good it can be, even in WWE.
