The finals of the 2022 WWE NXT Women’s Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic are now official.
Tonight’s NXT Roadblock special featured two semi-finals matches. Io Shirai and Kay Lee Ray defeated Kacy Catanzaro and Kayden Carter to advance, while Wendy Choo and Dakota Kai defeated Cora Jade and Raquel Gonzalez to advance, due to interference by NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne of Toxic Attraction.
The tournament finals will now take place at a later date with Shirai and KLR vs. Choo and Kai.
