WWE NXTs June 24 episode gave fans a lot of reasons to tune in. That included a Heritage Cup match, which saw Noam Dar return to defend it.
Noam Dar was set to defend his Heritage Cup Championship against Stacks this week on NXT. Sadly, NXT General Manager Ava had to announce that Dar had to relinquish the championship due to injury.
Naturally, fans were invested in this match. Stacks is dealing with his own drama surrounding Tony D and The Family. At this point, you never know what the company has planned for him, and he had to face his old Don in order to claim the Heritage Cup.
Tony D and Stacks match for the vacant Heritage Cup Championship kicked off the shows second hour this week. Fans were ready for the contest to start, and round one kicked off with Tony D on offense. The two had an even first round with the round coming to an end without a pinfall.
The second round didnt go long until Tony D was able to score the first fall in the match. They cut to commercial break, and returned with about 20 seconds to go in the third round, which came to an end without any decision.
The fourth round didnt go very long until Stacks was able to score a quick pinfall with a roll-up. Luca ran down to join Tony DAngelos corner as the fifth round started. There was a skirmish at ringside, where Luca grabbed a steel bucket from Stacks henchemen, and then he accidentally hit Tony D with it. This led Stacks to win the match and become Heritage Cup Champion. After the match, Tony D struck Luca and left him laying on the mat.
The rivalry between Stacks and Tony DAngelo is likely not going to simmer any time soon. Only time will tell where this Sopranos styled angle will end, but we will have all the updates you need.
