Tag Team title rematch announced for next week’s NXT
Imperium are getting their rematch for the NXT Tag Team titles next week.
WWE announced tonight that Breezango will defend their NXT Tag Team titles against Imperium’s Marcel Barthel & Fabian Aichner on NXT next week (Wednesday, September 16). Breezango defeated Barthel & Aichner to win the titles two weeks ago.
On tonight’s NXT, a video package aired building up Breezango vs. Imperium for next week. Breezango mentioned that it took them five years to become champions. Imperium said Breezango are nothing but a joke. They said Breezango holding the titles is a joke to the sport and everything Imperium stands for. Imperium vowed that they’ll make Breezango’s Tag Team title reign the shortest in NXT history. Breezango promised to keep the titles.
Breezango took part in a six-man street fight on NXT last week, teaming with Isaiah “Swerve” Scott against Legado del Fantasma (NXT Cruiserweight Champion Santos Escobar, Raul Mendoza & Joaquin Wilde). Barthel & Aichner got involved in the match and attacked Breeze, but Fandango and Scott made the save by hitting stereo dives off a forklift onto Legado del Fantasma and Imperium. Scott got the win for his team by pinning Escobar.
After airing on Tuesday for two straight weeks amid the NHL playoffs, NXT will be back on Wednesdays starting next week.
