Fraxiom receives praise from Shawn Michaels.
The duo of Nathan Frazer and Axiom are now members of the SmackDown roster after finishing up their time in NXT. Coming up for the team known as Fraxiom is a shot at The Street Profits' WWE Tag Team Titles on the 5/23 SmackDown.
Praise was heaped onto Fraxiom by NXT overseer Shawn Michaels. Michaels appeared on Stay Busy with Armon Sadler and said he agrees with those who think of Fraxiom as the best tag team in wrestling right now.
"Yeah, well look, I would 100 percent agree with the people that say that (Fraxiom is the best tag team right now). I think right now, they are clicking on all cylinders. Very proud of both of them. They’re two young men that were extremely talented. Known them since they came into NXT UK. Got an opportunity to work with both of them. Not quite from the ground up for the both of them but still pretty darn close. They were talented as singles. Very gifted. Still are. Kind of stuck their toe in the water here and there with tag team but once they really committed to being a team, they have taken it to another level and as you said, I think people -- again, both of them, my goodness. We’re talking about an average age of maybe 25, 26 years old and people really do sincerely consider them possibly the best tag team in the industry right now and that’s amazing praise for two guys, again, at their age and like I said, also still two very accomplished singles wrestlers that can go with anybody at any time. But their commitment to the tag team division and their tag team unity has just been amazing and I think it’s, you know, over the last year has shown people that they’re somebody that deserves to be looked at in a very, very serious manner."
Fraxiom earned their title opportunity by besting #DIY (Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa). They are 4-0 since being called up to the main roster.
