In tonight’s WWE NXT main event, the WWE NXT Tag Team Championships were on the line, and in many ways, this was Chase U’s final chance at a title shot, at least for the time being. This time, the pairing of Andre Chase and Ridge Holland took on the champions Axiom and Nathan Frazier. The two had their issues before, but once again seemed to be on the same page. Axiom and Frazer would occasionally avoid eliminating each other, ending the match with their finishers, but Chase U refused to go down. That led to a big run where Holland and Chase worked together to defeat Axiom with their finisher, which was enough for the pin and victory. With Chase U now the NXT Tag Team Champions, the fan-favorite group was met with a huge celebration as they held the titles aloft in the ring.
