The Authors of Pain have returned with a vengeance to NXT, and they’re coming to reclaim the top prize in the Tag Team division. Fortunately for Paul Ellering’s malicious monsters, they won’t have to wait long for their crack at the champions.
Per NXT General Manager William Regal, former titleholders Akam & Rezar will receive their NXT Tag Team Championship rematch against SAnitY this week, exclusively on WWE Network.
SAnitY’s Eric Young & Alexander Wolfe ended AOP’s undefeated streak and title reign in August at TakeOver: Brooklyn III with a thrilling victory. Following that loss, Akam & Rezar were nowhere to be seen until two weeks ago, when they made their thunderous return to the black-and-yellow brand, interrupting a Six-Man Tag Team Match between SAnitY and The Undisputed ERA and laying waste to Young, Wolfe and Killian Dain.
In announcing the title contest, Regal specified that both The Undisputed ERA and the member of SAnitY not competing in the match will be banned from ringside, all but ensuring outside forces don’t wreak havoc in the proceedings.
Can SAnitY topple the destructive Authors of Pain once again, or will Akam & Rezar’s fury be too much for the chaotic crew to endure? Find out when AOP make their long-awaited return to action this Wednesday at 8/7 C, streaming only on WWE Network.
