The Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic kicked off on tonight’s NXT, and fans got to see the first three matches of the tournament take place throughout tonight’s show. The final match of the night was one of the most interesting though, as before the show a new team going by the name of MSK has been teased, though we didn’t know their identities. That’s now been revealed though, as the Tag Team formerly known as The Rascalz in Impact Wrestling were officially introduced in NXT by the name of MSK.

MSK includes Dezmond Everheart Aiken (Dezmond Xavier) and Zachary Green (Zachary Wentz), and the duo was part of the latest class of NXT signings. They were always going to get a different name than the one they had in Impact, though MSK seems like a big change.

Dezmond is now known as Wes Lee while Zachary is known as Nash Carter, and they had some big energy when they came out, and hopefully, that will carry over to fans.
