Cisco n9k won’t let go of root bridge

I have a Cisco N9K in our core network at a DC, and we have a DF strand running to our new office space, where I have another N9K. I am trying to trunk 2 VLANs over the link, and STP is failing because the new N9K won’t let go of root bridge. I’ve tried changing the priority, but no matter what I do (or have done), it still makes itself the root bridge. The actual root bridge is the N9K in the DC, and as such it is blocking the port with Type listed as Dispute P2p. I feel like I’m missing something stupid easy here, any suggestions?

Both sides of the link are configured as: switchport mode trunk switchport trunk allowed vlan 98,899
