When Flash Morgan Webster returned from injury, NXT UK General Manager Johnny Saint decreed that he and Mark Andrews would have to earn a title match and that winning a pair of singles matches would be the only way to do so.
Webster and Andrews each prevailed in their singles bouts, earning entry into the NXT UK Tag Team Championship Match that also featured defending champions The Grizzled Young Veterans and Gallus’ Mark Coffey & Wolfgang.

In the three-way tag team encounter that followed, the distinctly different tandems fought tooth-and-nail in a back-and-forth struggle for momentum inside and outside the ring that garnished near-falls for each team and truly reflected the magnitude of the prize at stake.
Moments later, he and Drake capitalized when they hit a Ticket to Mayhem that looked like it would be the decisive blow. When Gibson instructed Drake to dive out of the ring to flatten Gallus and prevent them from breaking up the pinfall, however, he left himself open for Andrews to hit Fall to Pieces. Gibson never saw him coming, and the awe-inspiring maneuver cleared the way for the boys from Wales to emerge triumphant before their electrified home crowd!
The thrilling title victory means Webster & Andrews have made history, as they are the first Welsh-born champions in WWE history.
