#7 NXT Tag Team Championship

NXT Tag Team Championship
The original version of the NXT Tag Titles were cool because they actually complemented each other. The belts have the NXT logo vertical, splitting the belts into two sides. One of the belts has a black-and-gold design on the left side and a gold-and-black design on the right, while the other belt has that inverted, with the black-and-gold on the right and the gold-and-black on the left. It’s a great-looking design - simple and elegant.

The inaugural champions were Adrian Neville and Oliver Grey, and the longest reign belongs to Konor and Viktor of The Ascension, who held the belts for just one day short of a year.
The first team to win the titles outside of NXT’s home at Full Sail University in Winter Park were The Vaudevillains, who won the belts from Blake and Murphy at the first Takeover: Brooklyn event in 2015. The design was retired in April of 2017 on WrestleMania weekend during the reign of The Authors of Pain.

About the author
Nicholas A. Marsico
I got my first big break writing for 411Mania back in 2004. I did a small spot in a big weekly piece that was written by one of the site's top writers. I quickly added the duty of being the live recapper for episodes of SmackDown, and in 2005 was given my own weekly column, which I did for a few years. I gave up writing (mostly) to start a family but got back into it, still at 411, a little over 3 years later. For another couple of years, I wrote 2-3 columns per week for the website before finding paid work elsewhere, and eventually wound up at SportsKeeda.
I am also the co-founder of the RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk podcast, which started in the summer of 2005 and is still going strong today, almost 15 years later. Due to school, work, and family commitments, I left the team in 2011 but still remain a part of the family.
