May 14 (UPI) — Fabian Aichner and Marcel Barthel of Imperium won big on WWE NXT by earning the NXT Tag Team Championships.
Aichner and Barthel faced off against Matt Riddle and Timothy Thatcher for the title on Wednesday. Thatcher has been wrestling in place of Riddle’s real partner, Pete Dunne, who is unable to compete.
Riddle and Thatcher’s partnership fell apart after The Original Bro performed a Monkey Flip that sent Barthel flying into Thatcher. The incident caused Thatcher to walk out on Riddle who then had to deal with Imperium alone.
Aichner and Barthel then defeated Riddle with the European Bomb to become the new NXT Tag Team Champions. Imperium is also in possession of the NXT United Kingdom Championship which sits around the waist of Walter.
