The Indus Sher made an impression as they took down one-half of the NXT Tag Team Champions Matt Riddle after his match against Roderick Strong several weeks ago. However, Imperium made an even bigger impact a couple of weeks ago as they interrupted The Newly-Bros Show and beat down Riddle and Timothy Thatcher.

Soon after they attacked the NXT Tag Team Champions, the NXT UK heel team laid down the challenge for the Champions which they accepted last week. This week, NXT must allow the reigning Champions to not only defeat Marcel Barthel and Fabian Aichner but make them pay for their actions in the middle of the ring.

Riddle should knock out Aichner before Thatcher makes Barthel tap out to retain the NXT Tag Team Championships so that they can extend their reigns until Pete Dunne can join them to make a dominant faction.

After the match, The Indus Sher should arrive once again to beat down both the men and send another clearcut message, setting up another huge challenge for the Champions. The NXT tag team division is arguably the strongest in all of WWE, and such segments will only prove that the possibilities are endless.
