Romeo Moreno, Noam Dar, And More Advance In WWE NXT Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic

The 2026 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic kicked off on "WWE NXT," and the first two teams advanced to the next round. Noam Dar and Romeo Moreno and the Creed Brothers will move on after their victories on Tuesday.

Moreno and Dar faced off against Los Americanos in a fast-paced battle. Rayo and Bravo isolated Moreno in their corner, but the star was able to get the tag off to Dar, who locked in a guillotine on Rayo. As Bravo tried to interfere, Moreno got him in a standing submission, but Bravo overpowered him and slammed Moreno down onto Dar's hold on Bravo.

Bravo got Moreno on his shoulders, then got Dar on up there as well off the top rope. He spun them both around before dropping them to the mat. Los Americanos hit double headbutts from the top rope, but couldn't keep their opponents down.

Dar looked to have Bravo with a knee bar, before Bravo countered with a suplex. In the end, it was Moreno and Dar who hit Bravo with a leg sweep, forearm combo for the victory.

Julius and Brutus Creed took on the "WWE EVOLVE" team of Jax Presley and Harley Riggins in a quick match. Riggins and Presley were taken down immediately, but Presley tried to rally with a back body drop. Brutus took him out on the stairs on the outside. Riggins almost had Julius pinned, but Brutus went for a Brutus Bomb to break the hold, but accidentally landed on his brother when Riggins got out of the way. Riggins was knocked off the top rope by Brutus and the Creeds hit a double sit-down chokeslam for the win.

Dar and Moreno will face the winner of Fraxiom vs. DarkState. The Creeds will take on the winner of Tokyo Bad Boys vs. Sean Legacy and Dorian Van Dux.
