Pete Dunne will aim to settle the score with Tony D’Angelo at WWE NXT Vengeance Day.
WWE has announced that “The BruiserWeight” will battle D’Angelo in a Steel Cage match on the special episode of NXT 2.0, which will air on February 15.
The official preview, courtesy of WWE’s website, is as follows:
The rivalry between Pete Dunne and Tony D’Angelo epitomizes Vengeance Day.
“The Baddest Man” and “The Made Man” have traded brutal strikes since crossing paths for the first time at NXT WarGames, breaking one another’s hands and championship hopes with crowbars and cricket bats. D’Angelo has beaten Dunne black and blue with his trusty crowbar, using it to shatter his hand across the announce table before clubbing The BruiserWeight with the weapon to cap off a brutal Crowbar on a Pole Match.
After “eulogizing” Dunne, D’Angelo shot his shot for the North American Championship in a No. 1 Contender’s Match but had his title pursuits dashed as Dunne returned the favor by smashing D’Angelo’s hand with a cricket bat.
With so much animosity, the rivalry will be finished the same way it started: inside a steel cage.
Tune in to NXT Vengeance Day on Wednesday, Feb. 15, at 8/7 C on Syfy to see which Superstar will “handle their business by any means necessary.”
D’Angelo previously defeated Dunne in a Crowbar on a Pole match, but Dunne got some revenge when he cost NXT’s resident mobster a shot at the North American Championship. It’s safe to say there’s plenty of bad blood between the two stars, and it will come to a head at NXT Vengeance Day.
The updated card is as follows:
- Steel Cage Match: Pete Dunne vs. Tony D’Angelo
- NXT North American Championship: Carmelo Hayes (c) vs. Tony D’Angelo
- NXT Women’s Tag Team Championship: Toxic Attraction (Gigi Dolin and Jacy Jayne) (c) vs. Indi Hartwell and Persia Pirotta
- Men’s Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Finals
