Tony D’Angelo picked up a win over Tavion Heights on this week’s episode of WWE NXT, but found him attacked by the newly-named Mason Rook to close the show. The NXT Champion faced off with Heights in the main event of Tuesday’s show, seeking revenge after Heights ambushed him last week.
D’Angelo and Heights battled back and forth for about ten and a half minutes, and the end of the match saw things get chaotic as Kam Hendrix came down. Heights was able to send Hendrix out of the ring and Myles Borne came down to attack Hendrix. That distraction allowed D’Angelo to grab Heights and hit the Dead to Rights for the pinfall victory.
After the match, D’Angelo went to give Heights a handshake but Will Kroos came out and attacked both Heights and D’Angelo. He took both men out and then looked to the camera, revealing his official WWE NXT ring name as Mason Rook. You can see clips from the match below.
