NXT Level Up March 11, 2021 - Grizzled Young Veterans vs Briggs and Jensen

Briggs and Brooks throw down with Grizzled Young Veterans on NXT Level Up​

A star-studded edition of NXT Level Up will feature a hard-hitting tag bout pitting Josh Briggs and Brooks Jensen against The Grizzled Young Veterans, a spirited singles clash between Guru Raaj and Trick Williams, and Ivy Nile looking to continue her recent path of destruction against Brooklyn Barlow.

Though this will be their first tag team match on NXT Level Up, Zack Gibson and James Drake caught fire in the final days of 205 Live; Drake defeated Bodhi Hayward one-on-one, while the former NXT UK Tag Team Champions knocked off Ikemen Jiro and Kushida in a tag bout.

They’ll eye similar success against the powerful duo of Briggs and Jensen, who have won two out of their last three tandem bouts, knocking off Gibson and Drake themselves and scoring an eye-opening victory against The Creed Brothers. Most recently, Jensen prevailed against Hayward in singles competition, while Briggs toppled Damon Kemp.

What will happen when two of the most physical tandems in WWE match wits and fists on NXT Level Up?

Additionally, the brash Williams is set for one of the bigger tests of his young career when he collides with the more experienced Raaj. Backed by longtime friend and NXT North American Champion Carmelo Hayes, Williams is looking to tighten the duo’s grip on NXT, while Raaj is hoping to end a recent slump.

Nile, who remains undefeated in singles competition after defeating impressive competitors such as Kay Lee Ray, Valentina Feroz and Amari Miller, brings her take-no-prisoners style to NXT Level Up. She’ll be opposed by the exciting rookie Barlow, who is making her highly anticipated WWE debut.

Don’t miss an incredible episode of NXT Level Up, streaming Friday at 10/9 C on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else!​

Another one signed during the SummerSlam tryouts, they aint fucking around with getting new blood in

 

[Chris]

I heard she was related to Kissin' Kate Barlow

 

[Chris]

Watching this now, Melo on commentary fuck yeah.

Hope to see fast improvement from Trick so they can strap a rocket on him bc he's so entertaining

 

[Chris]

"You're the A champ, he's the A-hole" lmaoooo Nigel

Hope to see fast improvement from Trick so they can strap a rocket on him bc he's so entertaining

Could totally hide him in a tag team with Melo while he improves.

 

[Chris]

Solid stuff still pretty basic but def looks like he belongs. Need him in the ring with less jobbers to really see tho

Also commentary was fucking hilarious and the crowd also loves trick

 

[Dale]

Providing they weren't just used as cannon fodder, am I wrong for wanting them to be recruited by MVP to form a new THB?

Skip the Hurt Business branding IMO and have MVP manage them as a tag team separate from Lashely would be for the best. But never gonna happen either lol

 

[Chris]

Brooklyn Barlow is wish.com Tiffany Stratton lmaoooo

 

[Chris]

She fine tho

 

[Dale]

I'd be fine with that, I just think it gives them a solid in to the main roster and legitimacy straight off the bat.

Melo is easily ready too, but selfishly I'd rather him stay on NXT bc I think when more of the veterans like Ciampa and BUTCH leave he'll be needed for the greener guys to get to that next level

 

[Chris]

This girl could literally be Tiffany's stunt double lmao they should just team them, have her be Tiffany's assistant or something
