WWE NXT General Manager William Regal appeared on WWE's The Bump this morning to address the NXT Tag Team Titles situation.

Regal announced that tonight's NXT episode on the USA Network will see NXT Tag Team Champion Matt Riddle choose a temporary replacement for partner Pete Dunne, who is stuck in the UK and unable to defend due to travel restrictions related to the coronavirus pandemic. It sounds like Dunne will be involved with picking his temporary replacement.
