South Wales Subculture Capture The NXT UK Tag Team Titles at NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff
South Wales Subculture has won the NXT UK Tag Team Championship at NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff.
The pair won the championship in a triple threat match with The Grizzled Young Vets and Gallus.
The Welsh pairing is only the second NXT UK Tag Team Champions as the Grizzled Young Vets won the championship at the first NXT UK TakeOver which was held in Blackpool, England back in January of this year.

This victory marks both Mark Andrews’ and Flash Morgan Webster’s first championships during their time with WWE under the NXT UK umbrella. Mark Andrews pinned Zack Gibson following his Shooting Star Press, dubbed Fall to Pieces, to win the title after Gallus was taken out by a tope from James Drake following the then-incumbent champions’ Ticket To Mayhem double team finishing maneuver.
