The NXT tag team division has been a consistent bright spot. Though The Ascension wasn’t necessarily a great team in the ring, they were successfully booked as monsters for their developmental run. After they stepped aside, tandems like The Revival, American Alpha, #DIY, The Authors of Pain, Moustache Mountain, The Undisputed Era, and The War Raiders have delivered classics with a particular penchant for opening up TakeOver shows in a hot way.

The current tag ranks have something to prove. The Viking Raiders moved up to the main roster and vacated the tag titles, leaving a void that the current crop of teams will be all too eager to fill, and prove that the division hasn’t lost a step. Moreover, after Double or Nothing featured such excellent showings from AEW’s fledgling tag division, we can expect for this four-way bout to offer something of a statement to reaffirm that NXT sets the bar for tag team wrestling today.
