Lineup for WWE NXT Dusty Rhodes 2021 tourney could be renewed
MSK’s Wes Lee and Nash Carter are one of the two most experienced teams in this WWE NXT tournament as they have previously succeeded in the Dusty Rhodes Classic. MSK was the champions of the 2021 tournament while the Grizzled Young Veterans have made it to the finals two years in a row. After not being able to pick up the victory, they will now enter the tourney for the third occasion. Given the released bracket, it is possible that we may get to see the repeat of the 2021 final match lineup.
As per the tradition, the winners of the tournaments from the male and female version will respectively earn future title shots from WWE NXT Tag Team Champions Imperium’s Fabian Aichner and Marcel Barthel and NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions Toxic Attraction – Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne.
While the men’s tourney begins this week, the second annual WWE NXT Women’s Dusty Classic will begin in February. No teams have been revealed for the female counterpart as we expect more announcements regarding the same in the upcoming episodes of NXT.
