Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic

Uncommon card · No. 78985

The Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic is an annual professional wrestling tag team tournament held by the American professional wrestling promotion WWE, and is featured on its NXT brand, having first been established in 2015. In subsequent years, wrestlers from the NXT UK and 205 Live brands—both of which were subsidiary/sister brands under the NXT banner—have also been included. While originally just for men, a women's version of the tournament was introduced in 2021 and runs concurrently with the men's tournament. The tournament was established following the death of WWE Hall of Fame wrestler Dusty Rhodes, who was the creator of and star in the Crockett Cup tournaments in the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) during the mid-late 1980s, which the Dusty Classic is modeled after and has been compared to.
