Bron Breakker and Tommaso Ciampa showed team synergy Steiner Brothers style on WWE NXT 2.0.
The frenemies aligned against Dolph Ziggler and Bobby Roode in the opening tag match of the March 1 episode, and the fight didn’t even begin in the ring. Ciampa and Breakker weren’t waiting for the Dirty Dawgs to get inside the ropes, but the veteran stars isolated the NXT Champion for an extended time until the Capitol Wrestling Center barked him into a hot tag with “The Blackheart.” The crowd was fully behind Ciampa, but Roode floored him with a major spinebuster to squash his momentum.
After the break, the Dirty Dawgs ganged up on the former NXT Champion, but with another hot tag, Breakker stormed in with some Steiner style offense. The powerhouse then nailed Ziggler with a Ziggler spear before the two fan-favorites dropped him with the Steiner bulldog. In the end, Ciampa connected with a Fairy Tale ending on Ziggler and clinched the win.
Breakker will defend the title against Ziggler and Ciampa on next week’s special “Roadblock” episode.
