Just days before WrestleMania, the Revival defended their RAW Tag Team Championship against the upstart team of Aleister Black and Ricochet. The team of NXT All-Stars has defeated the champions a few times and the Revival have taken the losses personally.

The champions used their experience to ground Ricochet and isolate him from Black. Both teams know each other well by now and matched each other’s every move. Ricochet rallied and managed to tag Black to temporarily shift the momentum. A number of roll ups almost gave the challengers the win. Richochet dove over the ringpost to take down the champions. Dawson prevented Ricochet from getting back in the ring. As a result, the Revival won the match by count out.
