Channing ‘Stacks’ Lorenzo wins Heritage Cup trophy on WWE NXT
Stacks is the new Heritage Cup Champion.
The Underboss is the new cup holder thanks to inadvertent help from Luca Crusifino, who came out prior to the start of the fifth round as both men were tied at one fall each. The finish had Stacks’ associates attempt to use a pail to strike D’Angelo. Crusifino attempted to wrestle the pail away from one of the associates who let go, causing Crusifino to accidently strike D’Angelo as he was on the apron. That allowed Stacks to suplex D’Angelo back into the ring and connect with a shining wizard for the win.
After the match, an angry D’Angelo laid out Crusifino, saying he didn’t trust him or Stacks, who was seen celebrating at the entranceway.
Originally, the match was set to have Noam Dar defend the trophy against Stacks. Over the weekend, it was announced that Dar was injured and had to vacate the title as a result. Crusifino, who has been looking to prove his allegiance to D’Angelo, posted a video saying he was able to get D’Angelo into the Heritage Cup match saying if this didn’t prove his loyalty, nothing would.
