Team NXT Claim Show match Victory Over Team WWE in League of Legends

It’s not every day that you see this kind of crossover event, but League of Legends and the WWE have finally made an appearance together thanks to the hard work of one superstar, Xavier Woods. A huge fan of gaming, as evidenced by his gaming YouTube channel UpUpDownDown, Woods has been working hard to prepare a showdown between WWE and NXT superstars, with a little help from some high-profile League of Legends streamers Michael "Imaqtpie" Santana and Tyler "Tyler1" Steinkamp.

The show match took place today, with Team NXT ultimately proving to be better on Summoners Rift than their WWE counterparts. Perhaps due to the lax nature of their pro’s coaching, or possibly due to the incredible work schedule the main WWE roster is under, the WWE superstars seemed lost in this match, barely able to put up a fight against the NXT superstars led by Tyler1.

The action was all in good fun however, and their loss here today should only serve to motivate the WWE superstars to try even harder next time. As for their respective pros, Tyler1 and Imaqtpie are more than familiar with battling against one another, and fans can be sure that their clash here will not be the last time these two players meet on the field of battle.

Perhaps next time we might see other League of Legends pro players joining in the action, and maybe we might even see some step into the ring alongside their WWE teammates. For now, fans will have to be satisfied with the match that has been played, and the victory achieved by the NXT stars.
