In a recent development, WWE implemented a significant alteration to a prominent championship rule, which took effect during Tuesday night’s episode.
The latest installment of NXT unveiled the introduction of the ‘Catch Clause’ for the Heritage Cup.
WWE has been proactive in establishing various championships and tournaments across its three brands to maintain a high level of competition.

Among these, the Heritage Cup stands out as one of the most esteemed titles in NXT, currently held by the No Quarter Catch Crew.
This heel faction consists of Drew Gulak, Charlie Dempsey, Damon Kemp, and Myles Borne, with Dempsey notably defeating Noam Dar to secure the Heritage Cup from The Meta-Four in a recent encounter.
During the latest NXT episode, Charlie Dempsey and Myles Borne joined forces to challenge Nathan Frazer and Axiom in the first round of the NXT Tag Team Championship number-one contender’s tournament, aiming for a title match at Stand & Deliver.
However, the members of the No Quarter Catch Crew faced defeat against their agile opponents.
Simultaneously, Riley Osborne from Chase U seized an opportunity to vie for the Heritage Cup. Going up against Drew Gulak, representing the No Quarter Catch Crew, Osborne initially dominated the match.
However, a timely intervention from Jacy Jayne and Thea Hail altered the course of the bout, allowing Gulak to secure a 2-1 victory, marking the first defense of the Heritage Cup under the newly implemented Catch Clause.
In another development, WWE personality William Regal endeavored to offer guidance to his son during a recent NXT segment. Fans have long awaited the prospect of Regal and his son, Charlie Dempsey, collaborating in NXT.
At NXT Roadblock, Regal interrupted the No Quarter Catch Crew to commend his son’s achievement in securing the Heritage Cup for the faction.
Despite his father’s attempt to impart wisdom, Dempsey expressed confidence in surpassing his father’s accomplishments, leading to an inconclusive conclusion of the segment.
With Dempsey showing promise for a successful future in WWE, the potential pairing of father and son in NXT could offer intriguing entertainment, awaiting further developments from the creative team.
