The War Raiders battled Aleister Black and Ricochet at NXT Takeover: New York for the NXT Tag Team Championships. The four men proved once again why they are at the very top of WWE’s developmental brand with a match that will surely go down as one of the year’s best so far.

The bout was action packed from start to finish and featured high-flying attacks, as well as incredible feats of strength. Ricochet showed his power against Hanson, picking the big man up and throwing him over his head. But Hanson would not be denied, as he showed his agility against Ricochet, bouncing off the ropes like a cruiserweight.

In the end, The War Raiders managed to pull out the win and retain their tag team titles. But this match could have gone either way, as it was truly an evenly fought contest from beginning to end. Now Ricochet and Aleister Black are on to WrestleMania 35, where they will compete in a Fatal 4-Way Match against The Usos, The Bar and Rusev and Shinsuke Nakamura for the SmackDown Live Tag Team Championships.
