The quarterfinals of the 2026 Dusty Rhodes Tag Workforce Traditional rolled on this week, with BirthRight’s Charlie Dempsey and Lexis King taking over AAA World Tag Workforce Champions El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. and Galeno on “WWE NXT.” Wagner and Galeno in the end emerged victorious, thus advancing to the semi-finals.
Wagner and Dempsey began the match with mat-based motion. Wagner delivered an arm drag, to which Dempsey answered a kick. King and Galeno then tagged in, with the previous falling sufferer to a shoulder sort out and a senton. King tried to flee additional harm by rolling to the surface, solely to search out himself and Dempsey concurrently worn out by a dive from Wagner.
Within the tag bout’s closing moments, Wagner descended from the highest rope, trying to ship a Frog Splash on King; as a substitute, he met a pair of knees from the BirthRight memebr. A livid Zilla Fatu then charged right down to the ring, leveling Uriah Connors on the surface ground earlier than scaring Arianna Grace into retreating to the ring. On the opposite aspect, Galeno rammed Dempsey into the barricade.
Again contained in the ring, Wagner dropped King with a Michinoku Driver. Galeno adopted with a Frog Splash for the win.
Later within the present, Wagner and Galeno will be taught the identification of their semi-finals opponents after Hank Walker and Tank Ledger face off with The Creed Brothers. Rounding out the ultimate 4 of this yr’s Dusty Rhodes Tag Workforce Traditional is NXT Tag Workforce Champions The Vainness Undertaking (Brad Baylor and Ricky Smokes) and the duo of Romeo Moreno and Noam Dar.
