#DIY's hopes of reclaiming the NXT Tag Team Championships were shattered by The Revival on Wednesday night's show in Orlando.
Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa looked poised to dethrone The Authors of Pain, the duo they lost the belts to at TakeOver: San Antonio in January, when they locked in duel submission holds on Akam and Rezar.
However, Revival pair Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder, former two-time NXT Tag Team Champions, then hit the ring, attacking #DIY and ensuring The Authors of Pain retained the straps via disqualification.
Dawson and Wilder did not spare powerhouses Akam and Rezar, though, clashing with the reigning champions until they blasted Akam with their Shatter Machine finishing move.
Elsewhere, Asuka submitted a valiant Peyton Royce with the Asuka Lock to retain the NXT Women's Championship that she has held since beating Bayley in Dallas in April last year.
Royce and Billie Kay looked to ambush Asuka post-match but the Japanese star was saved by Ember Moon, before the two shared a staredown.
Plus, the flamboyant Patrick Clark saw off Sean Maluta with a Famouser.
