American Alpha's rise to the top of NXT (and most likely WWE's) tag team division has been lightning to say the least.

Chad Gable and Jason Jordan made their in-ring debut as a team in July 15, and almost overnight their popularity exploded. NXT creative wisely kept them away from the tag title hunt however, choosing to pull the trigger on the duo at NXT TakeOver: Dallas, defeating The Revival in one of the best tag matches of the year so far.

In fact, the match in which Gable and Jordan won the belts is probably only bettered by the one in which they dropped them, an absolute barnstormer of a bout a NXT TakeOver: The End... against The Revival once more.

American Alpha's title reign didn't exactly set the world alight, but it didn't really need to. They had already done that with their organic rise to prominence in the months prior, and it seems to be a given that they will find themselves on the main roster sooner rather than later.
