On the go-home show of NXT prior to WWE Stand and Deliver, there was a tag team gauntlet match to determine who would face Fraxiom for the NXT Tag Team Championship at the premium live event taking place this Saturday afternoon.
Hank Walker and Tank Ledger first beat Tyriek Igwe and Tyson Dupont. Next up were The Culling’s Brooks Jensen and Niko Vance, who also lost to Hank and Tank. No Quarter Catch Crew (Myles Borne and Tavion Heights) followed suit, and ultimately, Josh Briggs & Yoshiki Inamura also ended up losing. The underdogs not only managed to score the upset, but did so by going the distance, much like Lyra Valkyria and Bayley winning their tag team gauntlet match on last Friday night’s episode of SmackDown.
