Predicting Where All Current WWE Champions Will Be In 12 Months
8. NXT Tag Team Champions - SAnitY
SAnitY have been one of the most interesting acts on NXT throughout 2017, and the trio recently added a crucial mark of credibility for any stable - championship gold - by beating The Authors of Pain for the NXT Tag Team Championships at TakeOver: Brooklyn III.
Akam and Rezar seem poised for the main roster soon, which leaves the unit of Eric Young, Alexander Wolfe, Killian Dain, and Nikki Cross as the senior team in WWE development. They would be an asset to the main roster themselves, but call ups for AoP and SAnitY would leave NXT very short in a tag division which has been its strength over the past 12 months.
The face turn cemented by SAnitY’s helping of Drew McIntyre against The Undisputed Era on NXT this week sets up an immediate rivalry with Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly, which will keep them ticking over nicely. But their long-term future remains as a heel faction.
RAW would benefit from the addition of a good heel stable and the post-WrestleMania episode would be the perfect time to introduce their darkness to the red brand’s mid-card.
