Last year’s tournament was a breakout moment for NXT Tag Team Champions The Revival, though they came up short of taking the tournament home. This year, Scott Dawson & Dash Wilder won’t be satisfied unless their arms are being raised in victory after the tournament final at TakeOver: Toronto and their names are being etched on the Dusty Classic Cup.
Standing between the champions and their goal is the new team of Andrade “Cien” Almas & Cedric Alexander. The two high-flyers squared off against each other in singles action two weeks ago, with Alexander walking out with the victory and earning Cien’s respect. Will this duo make their first outing as a team a successful one?
