Despite coming up short, the duo performed some amazing feats that earned a lot of appreciation from the fans. American Ninja Warrior fame Kacy Catanzaro took to the skies when she scaled the scaffolding at ringside to dive right on to Kai and Gonzalez. It was truly an OMG moment!

Kacy Catanzaro and Kayden Carter may have lost the match, but the WWE Universe is rallying behind them. Some fans praised their excellent abilities in the ring, while a few others argued about how the babyface team should’ve won. All opinions and reactions make sense, but the bottom line remains that Catanzaro and Carter are a fabulous team.
Kacy and Kayden are so damn fun to watch. Just goes to show how insanely talented the division is when those two are lower on the totem pole #WWENXT

A Twitter user made a very logical point that Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez didn’t need this win as bad as Kacy and Kayden did. A win for the babyfaces today would’ve made them look like even bigger underdogs heading into the final.

Kai and Gonzalez don’t need the win. Kacy and Kayden are rarely used, so I thought that this tournament was the perfect way to make a star out of them by having them win. The ONLY legitimate team. And Gonzalez should be in the women’s title match at Takeover since she did pin IO

Another Twitter user noted how Carter and Catanzaro would grow if used as enhancement talent on either Raw or SmackDown. Well, not a bad idea honestly! They’re doing a superb job on NXT, and the main roster won’t be any different.
Kayden Carter & Kacy Catanzaro did themselves proud tonight. There’s an argument that you could put them on Raw or SmackDown right now to start as an enhancement team and grow over the next year. #WWENXT
