Axiom and Nathan Frazer are a professional wrestling tag team. They are currently signed to WWE, where they perform on the NXT brand, where they are the current NXT Tag Team Champions in their second reign.
On the December 5, 2023 episode of NXT , Axiom and Frazer faced each other in a singles match, which was interrupted by the competitors in the women's Iron Survivor Challenge, causing the match to end in a no contest. A rematch between the two was later scheduled for the NXT Deadline Kickoff pre-show, in which Axiom defeated Frazer. In the aftermath, the two decided to team up and subsequently entered the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament and managed to defeat Hank Walker and Tank Ledger in the first round on the January 9, 2024 episode of NXT, before being ultimately eliminated in the semi-finals by The Wolf Dogs (Baron Corbin and Bron Breakker) on the January 23 episode of NXT.

In March, Axiom and Frazer participated in the NXT Tag Team Championship Eliminator Tournament, defeating No Quarter Catch Crew (Charlie Dempsey and Myles Borne) in the first round [3] and Latino World Order (Joaquin Wilde and Cruz Del Toro) and The Good Brothers (Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson) in a triple threat tag team match in the final [4] to face NXT Tag Team Champions The Wolf Dogs for the titles at NXT Stand & Deliver, but failed to win the match. [5] In a rematch on the following episode of NXT, Axiom and Frazer defeated The Wolf Dogs to become the new NXT Tag Team Champions. [6] Much later, Frazer started to set his sights on singles titles to Axiom's displeasure. [7] Eventually, Axiom would do the same as he faced LWO's Joaquin Wilde on the 31 July episode of Speed in the Speed Championship #1 Contenders Tournament in a losing effort. [8] After multiple successful title defenses, on the August 13 episode of NXT, Axiom and Frazer lost the titles to Chase University's Andre Chase and Ridge Holland, ending their first reign at 126 days. The pair regained the titles in a rematch 19 days later at NXT No Mercy to become two-time champions. [9] [10] Soon after, Frazer began to set his sights on singles championships again. On the November 26 episode of NXT, Axiom lost to Ethan Page in an Iron Survivor Challenge qualifier. After the match, Frazer, who had qualified into the Iron Survivor Challenge, made a Freudian slip and disparaged Axiom. [11]
The debuting Axiom and the returning Frazer made their Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) appearance at Genesis on January 19, 2025, during the tag team title match between TNA World Tag Team Champions The Hardys (Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy) and The Rascalz (Trey Miguel and Zachary Wentz). Later that night, it was announced that The Rascalz will face Frazer and Axiom for the NXT Tag Team Championship on the January 23 episode of Impact! , [12] becoming the first WWE wrestlers to defend a WWE championship in TNA, where they successfully retained the titles after interference from Wes Lee, Tyriek Igwe and Tyson Dupont.
