Former NXT Tag Team Champions The Revival

Recently, main roster superstars such as Tye Dillinger and the Revival returned to NXT for their respective house show appearances. All three men looked happy to be back and the crowd welcomed them with open arms. Dillinger won a match against rookie Marcel Barthel and the Revival had a run in with the current NXT tag team champions, the Undisputed Era. A match between the Revival and the Undisputed Era is worthy of the main event on any show.

It's unclear as of right now if it was just a one-off appearance or it could be leading to something. Plenty of talent on the main roster could use some time back down in NXT, either because WWE isn't doing anything with them, or they need it to save their careers at this rate. Some of these talents that need an NXT rejuvenation include Dolph Ziggler, Mojo Rawley, Zack Ryder, Mike Kanellis and Dana Brooke, just to name a few. So much of the main roster talent doesn't get utilized properly, so why not send them down to NXT to see if it helps their career? A lot of talent that leaves WWE is able to reinvent themselves so they could do the same in either a new or familiar environment depending on the wrestler.

For the sake of this article, let's focus on tag teams and those who could use some time back down in NXT. Everyone deserves some kind of a push, especially if it's going to help save their career.


#1 The Ascension

The longest reigning NXT Tag Team Champions, The Ascension.

Remember the time when the Ascension was one of the best tag teams and the longest reigning NXT tag team champions? It seems so long ago.

WWE should really consider pushing these guys or releasing them. Their careers are not going anywhere and they need anything at this rate to help them. They could go back down to NXT to see if it helps their careers out.

NXT has a decent amount of tag teams that would work well for the duo. Teams like Heavy Machinery or even War Raiders would be great competition for them. Konnor and Viktor are decent wrestlers; they just never get to show it nowadays.

#2 Breezango

These guys could work well down in NXT.

The team of Fandango and Tyler Breeze would be great additions to the NXT roster. Tyler Breeze was previously a part of NXT and was a crowd favorite during his time. Fandango was a part of the original NXT back when it was int he style of a game show before it became what it is today.

This team could use some kind of a push since it seems like the momentum they had from the Fashion Files is gone. It's sad because this tag team works so well together.

Bring them down to NXT and have them face a tag team like the Street Profits. Both teams are really talented and funny and they could both work well together. It's worth a shot.

#3 The Revival

They really need a push right now!

Lastly, the tag team that inspired this list is the Revival. Injury ruined any kind of push they were going to get last year and it seems like they won't be getting pushed anytime soon.

It's a shame considering how good they were in NXT. In reality, you could say that about a lot of the call ups to the main roster. As mentioned earlier, the Revival made a shocking appearance during an NXT house show recently and they received a very warm welcome.

Just imagine matches against the likes of the War Raiders and the Undisputed Era. Those are must-see matches and it could happen if they were to return to NXT.
