"They are a couple of good bros" - RAW Superstar comments on the Dusty Classic winners MSK

Newcomers MSK celebrated their triumph in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament this past week on NXT. They have only been NXT Superstars since January, as they made their debut in the tournament. MSK have been impressing plenty of people, and WWE RAW star Riddle recently praised the duo.

Riddle, like MSK, once shined in NXT. He was a fan-favorite star, and he also won the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. He has moved up to the main roster, and he has been prominenly featured ever since.

In an interview with Vicente Beltran of ViBe & Wrestling, Riddle heaped praise on MSK. He explained that he has a lot of history with Nash Carter and Wes Lee, as they're currently known.

"MSK...they are awesome. I know those guys, I've wrestled them in the past and they are hard workers, they get it, they are entertaining. I mean did you see those guys eating popcorn the other day? They are very charismatic, they don’t care what you think about them, and they delivered. So honestly, I felt bad for Grizzled Young Vets because they got to the finals again, and they didn’t win. But what a great start for MSK winning the Dusty Cup on their first tournament in it, and I am happy for them; they are a couple of good bros."

MSK is riding a lot of momentum, and they've been receiving a lot of praise for their work in NXT. As Riddle pointed out, the Grizzled Young Veterans lost in the tournament finals for the second year in a row, but they put up an impressive performance in their defeat. Still, MSK has hit the ground running, and they seemingly have a bright future in NXT.
