Saturday’s WWE NXT Vengeance Day 2026 event also featured Charlie Dempsey rejecting Lexis King’s offer to join his Birthright group.
King had been trying to recruit Dempsey into his group for the past several weeks due to Dempsey being the son of William Regal and his group being full of people who came from wrestling families. During the show, King and the rest of Birthright confronted Dempsey and Tavion Heights backstage and told Dempsey he had one last chance to join his group. Dempsey rejected King’s offer leading to King warning Dempsey in response. Dempsey then agreed to Heights offer to reunite together one last time as No Quarter Catch Crew and go after Birthright in a tag team match.
