WWE NXT: The Revival pull out of Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic

Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano reached the semi-finals of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic - after their last-eight opponents, The Revival, refused to compete.

Scott Dawson walked to the entrance ramp on crutches on Wednesday night's episode of WWE NXT, announcing that a serious knee injury would prevent him from wrestling.

Dawson and fellow NXT Tag Team Champion, Dash Wilder, subsequently pulled out, allowing Ciampa and Gargano aka #DIY to secure a spot in the final four, alongside The Authors of Pain, TM-61 and SAnitY.

Authors of Pain powerhouses Akam and Rezar knocked off No Way Jose and Rich Swann, despite Jose's high-flying moves almost landing his team a pinfall triumph.

TM-61's scheduled clash with Austin Aries and Roderick Strong was fought as a singles contest between Shane Thorne and Strong after Aries sustained an eye injury at an NXT event in California.

Thorne won a chaos-filled contest - during which Aries jumped onto the ring apron and Strong dropkicked Nick Miller - when he caught Strong in a roll-up pin.

SAnitY stars Alexander Wolfe and Sawyer Fulton also beat Kota Ibushi and TJ Perkins in controversial fashion, with their stablemates Eric Young and Nikki Cross providing some timely interference.

Young and Cross distracted the referee after Ibushi hit a Golden Star Powerbomb on Wolfe, leading to Fulton and Wolfe nailing a slick double team move on Ibushi to progress.
