Having captured the NXT Tag Team Championships at NXT TakeOver: Portland, the duo of Pete Dunne and Matt Riddle have certainly established themselves as one of the best and over tag teams in all of WWE.
Riddle, who was targeted by the debuting duo led by Bivens, responded to the attack by claiming that he needs his tag team partner Pete Dunne to tackle the team of Singh and Gurjar.
Considering this week's attack by Rinku Singh and Saurav Gurjar, it is likely that Pete Dunne and Matt Riddle will be defending their NXT Tag Team Championships against the debuting tag team at a future event.
