Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic: Every Men’s Team Announced

The full slate of teams for the tag team tournament has been revealed.

This year’s Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic is taking shape, and WWE NXT 2.0 has now revealed all of the teams who will participate on the men’s side.

The men’s tournament begins next week. The teams will be as follows:

  • MSK (Wes Lee and Nash Carter)
  • Brooks Jensen and Josh Briggs
  • Jacket Time (KUSHIDA and Ikemen Jiro)
  • Malik Blade and Edris Enofe
  • Grizzled Young Veterans (Zack Gibson and James Drake)
  • Andre Chase and Bodhi Hayward
  • Legado del Fantasma (Joaquin Wilde and Raul Mendoza)
  • The Creed Brothers (Julius & Brutus Creed)

Blade and Enofe qualified for the tournament this past Tuesday night on NXT when they defeated Joe Gacy and Harland. Harland was disqualified in the match.

NXT has since released the brackets for the men’s tournament:

There will be a women’s tournament beginning in February. This will be just the second year that a women’s Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic has been held.

The inaugural Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic was held in 2015. On the men’s side, the winners (in order) have been: Finn Balor and Samoa Joe, The Authors of Pain, The Undisputed Era (Adam Cole and Kyle O’Reilly), Aleister Black and Ricochet, The BroserWeights (Matt Riddle and Pete Dunne), and MSK (Wes Lee and Nash Carter).

On the female side, the inaugural winners last year were Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez.
