Lee and Carter were signed to WWE in December 2020 without Trey Miguel after they left IMPACT Wrestling.
After the signing, Triple H commented on the possibility of Miguel signing with WWE in the future. Later, rumors surfaced that Miguel is considering both WWE and AEW as his next venture and that Vince McMahon's company was still interested in signing The Fresh Prince of Mid-Air and reunite him with his Rascalz teammates.

As stated earlier, MSK made their debut tonight on NXT against the team of Atlas and Scott. The four Superstars in the ring gelled well with each other and presented the NXT Universe with a fast-paced and exciting tag team match.
In the end, Lee and Carter hit a running blockbuster double-team finisher on Swerve to pick up the win.
Many predicting MSK to go all the way and win this year's Dusty Rhodes Classic tournament.
