WWE NXT October 27 Full Lineup
The Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic takes centre stage with two first-round matches. Vanity Project (Brad Baylor & Ricky Smokes) face Noam Dar & Romeo Moreno, while Hank and Tank (Hank Walker & Tank Ledger) take on The Wagner Brothers (Galeno & El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr.).
The tournament, named after the legendary Dusty Rhodes, has long been a launching pad for NXT tag teams, and both matches carry real stakes: a win keeps a team’s tournament run alive, while a loss sends them home.
The night’s championship match sees NXT North American Champion Jackson Drake defend his title against E.K. Prosper. Drake will look to continue his reign, but Prosper has a golden opportunity to walk out of the Performance Center with gold.
With tournament drama and a title on the line, tonight’s NXT shapes up as a must-watch episode for fans following the brand’s road ahead.
