Legado Del Fantasma dominated this NXT Tag Title Triple Threat early, but a furious Zack Gibson dropped Raul Mendoza with a nasty back suplex. Gibson went after the arm of Wes Lee, only for Lee to tag out to Nash Carter. MSK worked over Gibson until Mendoza blindsided Carter.

The former NXT UK Tag Team Champions took over, running through all four opponents after James Drake tagged in. Drake beat down Carter for several minutes while Legado Del Fantasma was down on the floor recovering.

Wes Lee finally tagged back in, and MSK went after GYV. Poetry in Motion hit both Drake and Gibson, but Lee and Carter were attacked by Legado Del Fantasma, who were lying in wait for the perfect opportunity.

A pair of big dives took out their opponents. The NXT Cruiserweight Champion's lackeys hit Carter with a pair of Coast to Coasts, but the pin was broken up by Gibson.

During the break, Legado Del Fantasma continued to work over MSK's Nash Carter after disposing of Gibson. The NXT Dusty Cup Winner was left on the wrong side of the ring, with Mendoza and Wilde tagging in and out to demolish Carter.

Mendoza hit a springboard moonsault but couldn't get the win. James Drake finally re-entered the fray, looking for a roll-up.

Lee tagged in, rocking Drake and Mendoza with a series of kicks. A suicide dive sent Gibson into the barricade, and a tope con hilo took out both members of Legado Del Fantasma.

A handspring Pele kick rocked Drake, and MSK followed up with Hot Fire Flame. It wasn't enough for the win, though, as Drake just barely kicked out

Zack Gibson pulled Lee off the apron, looking for GYV's suicide dive/Doomsday Device. A running knee from Carter stopped Drake, but he was taken out by LDF. Lee dropped them with a springboard double DDT.

As Lee focused on Drake, Gibson held his hand against the ring post, allowing his teammate to hit a dropkick and crush the hand.

An arm breaker hit, and the Shankley Gates were locked in. Drake prevented Carter from breaking it up, but Nash was able to grab his hand and prevent the submission.

Mendoza broke it up with a missile dropkick, and some tandem offense from Wilde and Mendoza took Gibson and Drake out of the match. Wes Lee was cracked with the Russian Leg Sweep/running enzuigiri, but for the first time ever, that finish didn't get the job done.

The Doomsday Device from GYV took Wilde out on the floor. MSK went after Mendoza, dropping him with a double stomp/burning hammer. The two final teams of the NXT Dusty Cup met in the ring. Carter countered Ticket to Mayhem and dropped both men with the springboard double cutter.

MSK took Gibson down with the spinebuster/springboard blockbuster for the win. MSK, just a few short months into their NXT run, captured the Tag Team Titles.
