WWE has confirmed that Pete Dunne and Tony D’Angelo will face off in a steel cage bout at NXT Vengeance Day.
Following NXT WarGames, the two stars both have scored one win apiece, heading into their third one-on-one encounter. Dunne defeated D’Angelo in a singles match on the December 21 episode of NXT 2.0. D’Angelo bested Dunne in their Crowbar on a Pole match on the January 11 show.
Confirming that the two will meet in the ring on February 15, the match preview on WWE.com reads:
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.
An NXT Women’s Tag Team Championship bout, and a North American Title match have also been advertised for the show.
Here is the currently announced card for NXT Vengeance Day 2022:
- Carmelo Hayes vs. Cameron Grimes – NXT North American Championship
- Jacy Jayne & Gigi Dolin vs. Indi Hartwell & Persia Pirotta – NXT Women’s Tag Team Championship
- Pete Dunne vs. Tony D’Angelo -Steel Cage Match
