MSK has won the 2021 Men’s WWE NXT Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.
Tonight’s NXT “Takeover: Vengeance Day” saw Nash Carter and Wes Lee defeat The Grizzled Young Veterans (James Drake, Zack Gibson) in the finals.
Carter and Lee are the winners of the Men’s Dusty Classic trophy, and they have earned a future title shot from NXT Tag Team Champions Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch.
The whole match was a classic clash of agile high-flying and technical wrestling. Throughout the bout, the Grizzled Young Veterans grounded Nash Carter. After a lengthy period in which James Drake and Zach Gibson isolated Carter, Wes Lee entered the match with a fiery hot tag. He planted Gibson with a face-buster, and MSK took control. Gibson countered a back-handspring maneuver from Lee with a knee to the face, but Lee kicked out of a 450 splash from Drake.
Lee planted Drake with a Poison-rana, and MSK hit a Swanton and a Corkscrew splash for a near fall. The Grizzled Young Veterans then hit a modified Doomsday Device, as Drake dove onto Lee outside the ring while he was on Gibson’s shoulders.
In the end, Lee pinned Gibson with a modified blockbuster to win the match and the tournament.
