Tough break, literally. I can only assume an MSK v Grizzled Young Veterans rematch will be the new title match at Takeover Adam Ant Reference.
This McAfee stable is getting kinda cursed. First Ridge Holland explodes his leg, now this.

Damn that sucks
Surprised they didn't throw Pat or Dunne out there. MSK vs GYV are the premiere tag team feud in NXT tho so might as well go with that. MSK should be in chase mode so I would strap up GYV for now

MSK won the Dusty, GYV can win the belts here, and then you can do a big stip blowoff as a tiebreaker where MSK eventually win the belts.

Terrible for Burch (and Lorcan). I really hope Lorcan doesn’t get lost in the shuffle here. He was the true MVP of that match once Burch was injured last week. He had to work a handicap match against the two top contenders and still managed to tell his end of that story in brilliant fashion.
Speedy recovery to Danny & continued success to Oney.

Hate injury, but was ready for them to lose the titles. Without McAfee theyve been completely forgettable.

This really sucks. Though they only defended the Tag Team Titles 3 times, Burch & Lorcan were great Champions. This makes them the 1st team since Imperium to lose the titles after 3 Defenses & ends their Reign at 153 Days, which is the 8th Longest of All-Time. I had a feeling that they would do a Multi-Team Match anyway at Takeover, so I can see a Fatal 4-Way between MSK, Breezango, Grizzled Young Veterans, & Legado Del Fantasma, with MSK winning since they never got their Title Match from winning the Dusty Cup.

I mean Lorcan did beat Balor & Kross on his own last week if I was him I’d ask for the next title shot or a North American title shot.

Why not have Dunne and Lorcan defend them?

We should have this at NXT Stand & Deliver
MSK vs GYV vs El Legado del Fantasma vs Breezango in a Fatal 4-Way Match for the NXT Tag Team Titles

Also, Gargano was right, see, the R on the X-ray means "real"!

Why not have Dunne and Lorcan defend them? They probably have plans for Dunne they don't want to give up on. Though, they probably could have had Dunne do his singles match on one night and defend the tag titles on the other. I mean, Adam Cole once won the North American title and defended the tag titles subbing for Bobby Fish on the same night once.

Pete's been crowing about being the best technical wrestler in NXT for a bit, which makes me wonder if they are setting up Dunne vs. KUSHIDA.

Yeah, Dunne already threw out a bit of an open challenge like a week or two ago, so it can easily be written as “You were already scheduled for another match on Takeover, against this opponent answering your open challenge”. Yeah, yeah, I know, “double duty” and all that... I’d rather they not. There’s only so many spots on these Takeover cards normally, for once there’s more, why give the same people more than one?

NXT has the worst injury bug of any company right now it feels like, just rotten luck
Sucks for the tag division too which has arguably been the weakest part of NXT lately, this is a real blow to it...

Yeah, the big issue people keep pointing out on social media is that there have been a few times in NXT lore where partners have been able to choose new partners when one guy is unable to defend the titles. We touched on the Undipsuted ERA subbing in Cole and later Strong for Fish, but Matt Riddle was also allowed the chance to sub in Timothy Thatcher when Pete Dunne was stranded in the UK due to pandemic. So, it's easy to sympathize with Oney's protests here.
