Title change, return at WWE Royal Albert Hall night two
The NXT Tag Team titles changed hands at Royal Albert Hall this afternoon.
Moustache Mountain (Tyler Bate & Trent Seven) defeated The Undisputed Era (Kyle O’Reilly & Roderick Strong) to become the new champions. The match was announced yesterday after Bate, Seven & Pete Dunne won a six-man tag against O’Reilly, Strong & Adam Cole on the first night in London.
This is Bate & Seven’s first Tag Team title reign in WWE. Bate was the inaugural United Kingdom Champion before losing it to Dunne.
Noam Dar also returned to action for the first time since undergoing surgery for a torn meniscus last year. He defeated Travis Banks, Mark Andrews, and Flash Morgan Webster in a fatal four-way number one contender’s match and will get a future shot at the UK Championship. After the match, Joe Coffey and Mark Coffey attacked everyone except Dar.
The UK Championship tournament shows will air on the WWE Network at 3 p.m. Eastern time next Monday and Tuesday.
