WWE crowns new Tag Team Champions on NXT

Breezango have won their first Tag Team titles in WWE.

On tonight’s post-TakeOver XXX episode of NXT, Breezango defeated Imperium (Marcel Barthel & Fabian Aichner) to win the NXT Tag Team titles. Tyler Breeze countered the European Bomb and hit superkicks on Barthel and Aichner. Fandango then hit a double leg drop from the top rope on Barthel and Aichner and pinned Aichner to win the titles.

After the match, Triple H posted a picture with Breezango and congratulated them on their win: “Two Superstars who’ve been ready to have their collective “breakout” moment. Congratulations to the NEW @wwenxt tag team champions, @mmmgorgeous and @wwefandango. #WWENXT”

Breezango became the number one contenders to the NXT Tag Team titles by defeating Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch and Legado del Fantasma (Raul Mendoza & Joaquin Wilde) in a triple threat match on Saturday’s TakeOver XXX pre-show.

Barthel & Aichner had been NXT Tag Team Champions since defeating Matt Riddle & Timothy Thatcher for the titles in May.

Imperium are also part of the NXT UK brand. NXT UK will return with new episodes starting on Thursday, September 17.
