5 Exciting swerves that can happen on WWE NXT tonight

#4 Matt Riddle fires back at the Tag Team division

Matt Riddle was randomly put together with Pete Dunne to compete in the Tag Team division, but they worked well beyond anyone’s expectations. Their chemistry is absolutely incredible both inside and outside the squared circle. Unfortunately, they haven’t been able to perform together in the recent weeks as Dunne cannot fly down to Florida unless the lockdown is lifted.

In Dunne's absence, Riddle has found an ally in Timothy Thatcher, who recently made his debut on the Black and Gold brand. In recent weeks, we have seen Thatcher being billed as a monstrous Superstar who is only focused on the in-ring action.

Although his new tag team partner, at least for the time being, is not very keen on taking part in the usual BroserWeights tantrums, Riddle has never shied away from hyping up his ally.

They seem to work well together, and there’s a high chance that Thatcher will stick with Riddle and Dunne even after the latter returns. It would be helpful for everyone involved and Riddle can use this chance to warn the rest of the NXT Tag Teams that he is still ruling the division.

Moreover, he needs to seek his revenge from Indus Sher as they had attacked him when he was all by himself.
