Time and location
Imperium moved one step closer to purifying the squared circle when they successfully defended their sacred ring against the formidable tandem of Kyle O’Reilly & Von Wagner in a hard-fought NXT Tag Team Titles Match at NXT WarGames.
The explosive effects of Wagner & O’Reilly both inside and outside the ring provided an incredible challenge from start to finish, but the tag team precision of Fabian Aichner & Marcel Barthel ultimately proved to be the difference.
Although Aichner took out Wagner outside the ring in the final moments of the action, O’Reilly locked in a painful submission to try and counter. Nevertheless, Aichner still had the strength to lift Kyle into the air and move him to his own corner. Barthel then tagged himself in and laid out O’Reilly with the Imperium Bomb for the victory.
In the aftermath, Kyle O’Reilly soaked in the cheers from the NXT Universe and dodged a sneak attack from Von Wagner that seemed to bring an unceremonious end to their partnership.
