10 Jaw-Dropping Answers To Wrestling Open Challenges
8. The Revival Debut
When
the New Day issued an open challenge the night after WrestleMania 33, the crowd
was left wondering, “Who? Who? Who? Who?”
They
got their answer in the form of Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson, the old-school
roughnecks known as The Revival. It was perfect timing for the former NXT Tag
Team Champions to make their presence felt on Raw because the post-WrestleMania
audience consisted mostly of smart fans well versed in Jim Cornette’s favorite
current duo. And if casual viewers were unsure what to make of the old-school pair,
they knocked down New Day’s ice cream cart to illustrate their non-nonsense
demeanor.
Although
injuries have plagued their main roster run, halting the momentum from their
debut, The Revival proved their worth by defeating the longest-reigning WWE Tag
Team Champions, and then putting Kofi Kingston on the shelf.
