Poor Grizzled Young Veterans. They had reached their second straight finals in the Dustin Rhodes Tag Team Classic just last Wednesday night to fight at NXT TakeOver Vengeance Day. It seemed after all their great work they would be able to break through and get a future NXT Tag Team Championship match by winning the Cup. At NXT TakeOver Vengeance Day, they were facing the new tag team of MSK. What could possibly go wrong?

At NXT TakeOver Vengeance Day, Grizzled Young Veterans and MSK put on an incredibly fast paced final tournament match for over 18 minutes. These two teams put on quite a show of high-flying moves and near pinfalls for the entire match. Wes Lee, in particular, was quite incredible. He pulled off some unbelievable feats of athleticism in the tournament final.

With their great work throughout the Dustin Rhodes Tag Team Classic, it was easy to see why MSK won the match on Sunday night. But to watch Grizzled Young Veterans coming just short yet again was very surprising. One has to wonder where Zack Gibson and James Drake go from here. It will be interesting to see where the talented NXT Tag Team division goes as well.
