The group of Pete Dunne, Ridge Holland, Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch is no longer as Dunne and Holland separated themselves on the 9/7 episode of NXT. After Burch and Lorcan’s NXT Tag Title match loss to the champions MSK (Nash Carter & Wes Lee), they were ambushed by Dunne and left laying in the ring.
