The team known as The Rascalz, consisting of Zachary Wentz, the TNA X-Division Champion, and Trey Miguel, secured a title opportunity during the WWE NXT episode on September 3 by winning a contendership match. They emerged victorious in a Triple Threat bout against Gallus, Hank Walker, and Tank Ledger, aided by interference from Joe Coffey and The Good Brothers. The Rascalz are now poised to challenge Axiom and Nathan Frazer for the tag team championship on the upcoming September 10 episode of NXT.
During a backstage interaction, The Rascalz expressed confidence in their ability to defeat Axiom and Nathan Frazer and snatch the titles for TNA. Wentz also raised doubts about whether the current tag team champions were in sync. Wentz had previously triumphed over Wes Lee at NXT No Mercy before organizing the contendership match for September 3.
Axiom and Frazer had previously claimed the tag team titles by vanquishing Chase U at NXT No Mercy.
