Tonight’s WWE NXT TV tapings from Center Stage in Atlanta saw The Authors of Pain defeat The Street Profits to become the new #1 contenders to NXT Tag Team Champions Kyle O’Reilly & Bobby Fish of The Undisputed Era. It was believed that Fish & O’Reilly would be defending against SAnitY in a Steel Cage match at “Takeover: Philadelphia” but that match is not happening as Akam & Rezar vs. Fish & O’Reilly is now confirmed.
It was also announced at tonight’s tapings that NXT Women’s Champion Ember Moon will defend her title against Mae Young Classic runner-up Shayna Baszler at Takeover, and that Adam Cole vs. Aleister Black will be held under Extreme Rules.
