"Was it ever in doubt? I'm gonna let your pointless questions slide because this is a time for celebration," Gibson said. "This is a time for the whole world to rejoice. James Drake, Zack Gibson, we are everything that we said we would be. We are the very first NXT UK Tag Team Champions. Was it ever in doubt? I'm gonna head straight over to the bookies right now and collect every penny that I gambled, every penny that we bet, and everyone else watching around the world can do the same thing because this was more or less a foregone conclusion."
