This week’s WWE NXT episode featured a singles match between Ilja Dragunov and JD McDonagh that culminated in a ringside brawl between Dragunov, McDonagh, newcomer Dragon Lee, and NXT North American Champion Wes Lee. Lee announced all three Superstars for his Fatal 5 Way title defense at NXT Stand & Deliver, with the final competitor being confirmed next week with a Battle Royal.
The Dragunov vs. McDonagh match was a hard-hitting back & forth bout, as expected. WWE has released post-match photos of the longtime rivals and their battle scars, which can be seen below.
JD retweeted the photos with the hashtag “FTMF,” daring his colleagues to follow that, my friends.
As of this writing, Dragunov had not responded to the post-match photos.
The following are clips from Tuesday night’s NXT match between Dragunov and McDonagh, as well as the aforementioned post-match photos:
