A young star recently defended his title at a WWE event. The 29-year-old faced off against a current champion.
Tony D'Angelo has come a long way since a couple of years ago and is now one of the most popular stars on the white and gold brand's roster. D'Angelo is also a main event player who challenged for the NXT Championship earlier this year.
Although he could not win the WWE NXT Championship, Tony D'Angelo captured the NXT Heritage Cup from No Quarter Catch Crew not long ago. A couple of weeks ago, Nathan Frazer, who is one-half of the WWE NXT Tag Team Champions, showed interest in challenging for the title, and he was granted his match tonight.
