8 Most Shocking Title Changes In WWE NXT History
6. The Revival Vs American Alpha
After the red hot American Alpha had won the NXT Tag Team Championship in an emotional match at NXT TakeOver: Dallas during WrestleMania weekend earlier this year, nobody expected them to lose the titles back to The Revival at the very next NXT special.
In a tremendous tag match (something of a calling card for both these teams at this point), Dash & Dawson shocked everyone when they were able to hit the Shatter Machine on Jason Jordan to become the first ever two-time NXT Tag Team Champions.
When American Alpha got the call up to the main roster the next month, the title switch made a lot more sense. Meanwhile, The Revival went from strength-to-strength in their acclaimed second reign as champs, becoming even more conceited as heels and even better in the ring. Their recent feud with Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano produced the best tag team matches of the year.
