At yesterday’s NXT House show in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, the Undisputed Era issued an open challenge to anyone in the locker room. While NXT tag team champions, Kyle O’Reilly and Roderick Strong may have expected a team currently on the NXT roster, they got a team from Raw instead.
Former NXT tag-team champions, Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson answered the open challenge. It was the first time the team has wrestled in NXT since April of 2017. They were defeated by Strong and O’Reilly, however.

The Revival in NXT and on Raw
The Revival wrestled in NXT from 2014 to 2017. The team was previously known as the Mechanics as well. They are 2x NXT tag team champions and won the NXT Tag Team of the Year award in 2016.
So far, the Revival’s first year on the main roster has not gone as many hoped. Injuries hampered their initial debut and the team hasn’t seemed to have gained much momentum since returning.
Their most recent match on television came this week on Raw. Bray Wyatt and Matt Hardy defeated the Revival in a match which went under 5 minutes. They have managed to score victories over Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows (Raw April 9th, 2018) as well as victories over Breezeango and Heath Slater & Rhyno on episodes of Main Event, however.
