Standout NXT UK tag team Pretty Deadly made their NXT 2.0 bows last night, attacking The Creed Brothers after Brutus and Judas' victory over Marcel Barthel and Fabian Aichner of Imperium.

Mask-clad and dressed in black from head to toe, Pretty Deadly jumped the Creeds from behind and beat them down with steel chairs. With the damage done, they pulled off their masks, revealing their identities.

Pretty Deadly were also given name changes for their crossover into NXT's United States arm. From now on, the former Lewis Howley will go by Elton Prince and Sam Stoker will be known as Kit Wilson.

The British duo had been stalking The Creed Brothers for several weeks, including a mystery beatdown in the most dangerous place in professional wrestling: the NXT parking lot. Rumour has it that the ghost of Hideo Itami oversaw that one.

Whether or not Pretty Deadly's switch to NXT 2.0 will become permanent remains to be seen, though the duo had been NXT UK mainstays since 2020. Their run included a 265-day run as Tag Team Champions that ended in defeat to Moustache Mountain last November.
