“Die Matte ist heilig”

The mat is sacred for Imperium, and they have made their beliefs known that MSK have tarnished the squared circle and made a mockery of the sport. 

Fabian Aichner & Marcel Barthel have been stewing ever since their loss to Wes Lee & Nash Carter in their previous NXT Tag Team Championship Match. With MSK's championship reign rolling ahead full steam, Imperium sent a message to Lee & Carter following their Fatal 4-Way Match with a surprise assault from behind.

MSK promptly returned the favor last Tuesday with a sneak attack of their own, leaving Imperium with their answer as Aichner & Barthel hobbled back up the ramp, "You want it? You got it."

At Halloween Havoc, another chapter will be added in this vicious rivalry as MSK and Imperium will Spin the Wheel, and Make the Deal for the NXT Tag Team Championship.
