Breezango earned their NXT Tag Title opportunity by emerging victorious from a Triple-Threat tag team match on the TakeOver: XXX pre-show. The tandem of Tyler Breeze and Fandango got their shot at the gold on the 8/26 episode of NXT as they took on the champions Imperium (Fabian Aichner & Marcel Barthel). The conclusion of the match saw miscommunication between Imperium that led to Breezango capitalizing on the mistake and ultimately winning the NXT Tag Team Championships.
Let the championship celebration BEGIN!

Imperium first captured the NXT Tag Titles on an episode of NXT in May. They successfully defended their titles against Kyle O’Reilly and Bobby Fish several weeks before TakeOver: XXX.
Tyler Breeze and Fandango have been a team since 2016 and after four years together, they have captured their first championship as a duo.
