Hank Walker and Tank Ledger successfully defended their NXT Tag Team Championship against Shawn Spears and Niko Vance of Culling on Tuesday’s WWE NXT. The match was charged with tension as Walker and Ledger accused their opponents of orchestrating a recent mysterious attack on them. Despite attempts by Spears, Vance, and their ally Tatum Paxley to gain an advantage, Walker and Ledger maintained their composure. After Paxley and Dame were neutralized by Sol Luka and Zaria, the contest leveled out, allowing the champions to take control. They capitalized on the situation, knocking Vance down with a clothesline and finishing Spears off with a Powerslam combo, successfully retaining their titles.
This victory marks nearly three months of Walker and Ledger holding the NXT Tag Team Championship since their surprising win over Nathan Fraser and Axion during the NXT Stand & Deliver event, before their opponents moved to the WWE main roster. Recently, Walker and Ledger also secured a win in a Big Six-man tag match at NXT Battlegrounds, defeating Spears, Vance, and Brooks Jensen, and they previously defended their titles against Briggs and Yoshiki Inamura on the NXT television show.
Fan Take: This defense solidifies Hank Walker and Tank Ledger as dominant forces in the NXT tag division, highlighting their growing chemistry and resilience. For WWE fans, their reign signals fresh storylines and intense rivalries that could elevate the tag team scene and bring more excitement to the sport’s future.
