In a shocking turn of events, a WWE referee was left shivering and fuming after being locked up in a freezer by Tony D’Angelo and his crew, The Family, during a recent NXT show. The referee, whose identity has not been disclosed, was left to suffer in the cold, shirtless and helpless, until he was finally rescued.
The incident occurred during a heated feud between Tony D’Angelo and Charlie Dempsey, which has been escalating over the past few weeks. D’Angelo, who leads The Family, has been trying to get his hands on the NXT Heritage Cup, currently held by The No Quarter Catch Crew.
In a bizarre twist, D’Angelo’s crew was shown beating down members of The Catch Crew, and later, the real referee was discovered locked up in a freezer, replaced by Stacks, a member of The Family, who acted as a guest referee in a match.
The referee’s ordeal was a result of The Family’s underhanded tactics, which have raised eyebrows among fans and WWE management. The incident has sparked concerns about the safety and well-being of WWE officials, and it remains to be seen how management will respond to this egregious behavior.
Meanwhile, Dempsey, who will face D’Angelo next week, is expected to be at a disadvantage, as his teammates, Damon Kemp and Myles Borne, were injured during the ordeal. With D’Angelo likely to bring backup, the odds are stacked against Dempsey, making it an uphill battle for him to retain the NXT Heritage Cup.
The locker room is abuzz with speculation about the consequences of The Family’s actions, and fans are eagerly waiting to see how WWE management will address this incident. Will there be repercussions for The Family, or will they get away with their nefarious behavior? Only time will tell.
