An injury has forced Ilja Dragunov to relinquish the NXT United Kingdom Championship.

At an NXT UK television taping on Wednesday, Dragunov appeared with one of his feet in a protective boot and had to vacate the NXT United Kingdom Championship due to the injury. An eight-man tournament will crown the new champion.

Dragunov had been NXT UK Champion since defeating WALTER for the title at NXT TakeOver 36 last August. Dragunov successfully defended the title against A-Kid, Jordan Devlin, Rampage Brown, Roderick Strong, and Nathan Frazer during his time as champion. Dragunov twice retained the title against Devlin.

A Dragunov vs. Wolfgang title match was also filmed at an NXT UK taping last month but has yet to air on TV.

The NXT UK Championship was first introduced in 2017. Tyler Bate, Pete Dunne, WALTER, and Dragunov are the only four wrestlers who have held the title since then.

A silver lining is that this could set up a Trent Seven title run and a feud with Bate

Tyler Bate is the first-ever two-time NXT United Kingdom Champion.

Bate won the vacant NXT UK Championship at Thursday's NXT UK television tapings, defeating Trent Seven in the finals of an eight-man tournament. Former champion Ilja Dragunov had to relinquish the title at Wednesday's tapings due to injury.

The tournament final was a matchup of former Moustache Mountain tag team partners. Seven turned against Bate after they lost the NXT UK Tag Team titles last month. Leading into their breakup, there had been dissension between Bate and Seven over Seven cheating to win their matches.

Bate was the inaugural NXT UK Champion, winning the title in January 2017 and dropping it to Pete Dunne in May of that year. Bate, Dunne, WALTER, and Dragunov are the only four wrestlers to ever hold the title.

Dragunov appeared at Wednesday's NXT UK tapings with one of his feet in a protective boot. His injury has yet to be acknowledged on NXT UK television. A Dragunov vs. Wolfgang NXT UK title match that was filmed in June will air in the coming weeks.
