The Main Event: Tourney Time!
It’s time once again for the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic, one of my favorite tournaments in wrestling. The tournament this year has 16 teams, including a mystery team we saw in action (more on them later). The opener saw Grizzled Young Vets dispatch of Ever-Rise in a quality matchup.
It’s a first-round matchup between #EverRise and the Grizzled Young Veterans on #WWENXT!

Our main event was between the Undisputed Era & Breezango. Despite a valiant effort, the fashionable ones were bested by Adam Cole & Roderick Strong. After the match, Pete Dunne & the NXT Tag Team Champions attacked in retaliation to an incident earlier in the night. They targeted injured Kyle O’Reilly, but Finn Balor evened the playing field. Dunne and his boys stood tall to end the night.

The Undercard:
Peter Dunne wants to be NXT Champion. He, Danny Burch & Oney Lorcan attacked Finn Balor after a brief promo battle where Dunne said he’d be taking the title off of Balor. Finn got some backup from the Undisputed Era boys, and was able to chase them off for now.
Looks like #NXTChampion @FinnBalor didn’t come alone! @AdamColePro, @KORCombat & @roderickstrong are always ready for a FIGHT on #WWENXT! pic.twitter.com/tPHRKuEtrs

MSK, the mystery team at the top of the Dusty Cup bracket, has been revealed: The Rascalz have debuted on NXT. They don’t go by Zachary Wentz or Dezmond Xavier now, but they looked good in their first match. How far can the former Impact stars go in the tournament?

Xia Li is the coolest thing in NXT right now. She was dominant against an enhancement talent tonight, being commanded by a mystery woman on a throne at the entrance way. Think Bray Wyatt rocking chair, but with Chinese mysticism and a lot of intrigue. She could be built all the way up to the Women’s Championship
WHO IS THAT AND WHAT HAS HAPPENED ON #WWENXT?!

Karrion Kross has made his intentions known – he wants next at Finn Balor. While Pete Dunne is the next challenger, Kross is waiting in the wings for the title he never lost.

The Women’s Dusty Cup had some teams announced on Twitter. Those teams are:
- Ember Moon & Shotzi Blackheart
- Candice LeRae & Indi Hartwell
- Kacy Catanzaro & Kayden Carter
- Mercedes Martinez & Toni Storm
Let’s hope the field is more than just four teams.
There was a Fight Pit preview between Timothy Thatcher & Tommaso Ciampa, and these two may tear the house down next week.
The FIGHT PIT is home to Timothy Thatcher and brand new territory for @NXTCiampa.

Grade: B
I’m biased because I love tournaments and I love tag team wrestling. Still, this was another excellent episode of NXT. Dunne-Balor is a great feud, plus it gives something for Undisputed Era to do and continue to solidify their babyface run. All three tag matches were fun to watch. Xia Li is now must-see television. I’m excited for next week, so this show did it’s job.
