The reign of Gallus (Mark Coffey & Wolfgang) as NXT UK Tag Team Champions came to an end on the 2/25 edition of NXT UK on the WWE Network. The duo defended their titles against Pretty Deadly (Lewis Howley & Sam Stoker) in the main event.
Towards the conclusion of the match, Pretty Deadly lured Wolfgang in to chase them around the ring which led to Lewis Howley tackling Wolfgang over the guardrail. Howley and Stoker capitalized on the 2-on-1 advantage and captured their first pieces of championship gold in WWE.
