From WWE:

Just days after their Triple Threat Match victory at NXT TakeOver: XXX, Breezango will challenge Imperium for the NXT Tag Team Titles Wednesday night on WWE NXT.

Breezango became No. 1 contenders to the NXT Tag Team Championship on the NXT TakeOver: XXX Pre-Show, with a decisive victory over Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch and Legado del Fantasma, thanks to a Supermodel Kick by Prince Pretty to Lorcan.

Since bringing the age of Imperium to the United States and becoming champions, Barthel & Aichner have remained on top of the NXT tag team division. Marcel Barthel & Fabian Aichner have been victorious over Breezango in the past. Will the fashionable pairing of Prince Pretty & Fandango ride the momentum of their TakeOver: XXX victory and waltz their way to a title? Tune in to NXT on USA Network, Wednesday at 8/7 C.

Also set for Wednesday's NXT is a Cruiserweight Title bout pitting champion Santos Escobar against Isaiah 'Swerve' Scott. Plus, Rhea Ripley teams with Io Shirai to take on Dakota Kai & Raquel González.

 

In addition, Tommaso Ciampa will make his return on August 26, Damian Priest will be part of the show, and new NXT Champion Karrion Kross will kick off Wednesday's show. 

Fightful will have live coverage of NXT beginning at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday.
