Tommaso Ciampa & Timothy Thatcher set to clash with Grizzled Young Veterans in Dusty Cup Semifinals
Tommaso Ciampa and Timothy Thatcher were trying to destroy each other only a few weeks ago. Now, they’re two victories away from an NXT Tag Team Championship opportunity.
The Blackheart and “The Professor of Pain” will look to continue their improbable Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic run against The Grizzled Young Veterans with a spot in the finals on the line.
After beating mutual respect out of each other inside the NXT Fight Pit, Ciampa & Thatcher decided they made an even better team than enemies. So far, they’ve been proven right.
First disposing of Tony Nese & Ariya Daivari, Ciampa & Thatcher impressed last week by eliminating The Undisputed ERA’s Adam Cole & Roderick Strong, who entered as prohibitive tournament favorites.
Zack Gibson & James Drake will be far from a pushover, however. The Liverpool and Blackpool, England, natives are looking to punch their ticket to the finals for a second consecutive year.
Can Ciampa & Thatcher topple another more experienced duo, or will Gibson & Drake keep rolling?
