WWE NXT Vengeance Day 2023 Full Results And Highlights
Gallus put up a solid outing at NXT PLE
Kingston was preoccupied with fighting outside with the Pretty Deadly members while Woods was driven to the mat by Gallus as the heavyweight team secured the pin-fall win to clinch their first title win on NXT at NXT Vengeance Day 2023.
Before dropping the titles, Kingston and Woods had been the champions since defeating Pretty Deadly at the NXT Deadline premium live event on December 2022. This marked the beginning of their first NXT stint for the duo where they became the NXT Tag Team Champions.
Gallus previously had two title runs before NXT Vengeance Day 2023
By virtue of their win at NXT Vengeance Day 2023, this is the first time that Coffey and Wolfgang have held titles on NXT. However, they have held gold before as they had been former NXT UK Tag Team Champions. They also possess the record of holding the titles for a record 497 days, as per the acknowledgment of WWE.com.
Back in 2021, Pretty Deadly ended their lengthy title reign on NXT UK. Afterward, both these two teams were exported into the NXT roster. Pretty Deadly already enjoyed two separate title reigns with the NXT tag titles before dropping the belts to New Day. Now, Gallus should dominate the NXT tag division, going by their strong on-screen character.
Gallus was the second tag team to win NXT tag team gold at NXT Vengeance Day 2023 as Fallon Henley and Kiana James defeated Katana Chance and Kayden Carter to become the new NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions. This also marked the beginning of their first title reign as the NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions.
