With WWE nowadays often dropping main roster talents into NXT for a spell, the Good Brothers appeared on last night's NXT broadcast to put the brand's tag team division on notice.

This most recent NXT episode saw Chase U's Andre Chase and Duke Hudson defeat Axiom and Nathan Frazer to become the new #1 contenders for the NXT Tag Team Championships held by Bron Breakker and Baron Corbin. Post-match, Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows appeared to lay waste to both teams - and Riley Osborne, who was at ringside.

The Good Brothers' NXT arrival was followed by a backstage promo, where they made it known that they're coming after Breakker and Corbin's Tag Team Titles.

As alluded to, Anderson and Gallows are just the latest main roster talent to be utilised in NXT. On this episode alone, there was SmackDown's Shotzi - who unfortunately suffered an ACL tear - the recently-recruited-to-SmackDown Bron Breakker, and a Baron Corbin who's been a mainstay of the main roster for several years.

For the Good Brothers, they returned to WWE in October 2022, once again joining forces with their old buddy AJ Styles to reform the OC. Since then, that faction has added Mia Yim/Michin to its ranks, although recent weeks and months have featured some tension amongst the group as Styles embraces a more villainous persona. Now though, with Gallows and Anderson having seemingly turned heel on NXT, that should have them back on the same page as the Phenomenal One.
