What'd you think of the Blair Davenport segment lol

I’m a fan of hers so taking out Nina before the match was cool with me. Then taking out Sid on top of that was badass.

NXT UK features Wolfgang battling Gradwell, savage Six-Man Tag Team Match
On an action-packed edition of NXT UK, Wolfgang is set to tangle with Sam Gradwell in the first round of the NXT UK Heritage Cup No. 1 Contenders’ Tournament, while Oliver Carter, Ashton Smith and Saxon Huxley will join forces for a heated melee with Symbiosis. Plus, the WWE Universe will be treated to a replay of NXT TakeOver 36’s harrowing NXT UK Championship Match between WALTER and Ilja Dragunov!

Brutality has been the name of the game thus far in the eight-Superstar tournament, and Wolfgang and Gradwell are all but certain to continue the trend when they lock horns.

The Last King of Scotland is in the middle of a “friendly competition” with his Gallus brothers to find out which member can achieve the most success as a singles competitor. The boisterous Gradwell is just as fond of trading haymakers as he is talking smack, meaning he should be right at home in an NXT UK Heritage Cup Rules Match.

Carter and Smith don’t seem to have much in common with the crazed Huxley other than the simple fact that they’ve all run afoul of Eddie Dennis, T-Bone and Primate in recent weeks.

Huxley, who recently defeated Dennis but suffered a vicious three-on-one beatdown after the bell, finally gets a fair fight against his tormentors now that he’ll be backed up by one of the most talented tag teams in NXT UK.

Finally, the WWE Universe can kick back and watch a replay of a bona fide Match of the Year candidate, as NXT UK will conclude with another look at The Mad Russian’s epic NXT UK Title Match victory over The Ring General.

Show was pretty mid, especially in-ring wise today but I did like a couple of the backstage segments. That replay of WALTER/Ilya tho they played the match in full and had comments by quite a few people throughout including Ilya himself, Drew McIntyre, Toni Storm, Sheamus, Rhea Ripley, and Cesaro. Similar to those WWE playbacks on YouTube but with the match shown in full instead of just clips of the reactions

 

[Chris]

Next week looks back on track, Dar should def win the match above even if I'm enjoying Kenny's new character. Also, Joe and Mark Coffey are challenging Pretty Deadly for the tag titles

Tried watching, but really couldn't get into it.

Pretty Deadly defend against Gallus, Williams battles Dar on NXT UK
A loaded episode of NXT UK is set to feature a highly anticipated title fight between NXT UK Tag Team Champions Pretty Deadly and Joe & Mark Coffey, as well as the first of two NXT UK Heritage Cup No. 1 Contender’s Tournament Semifinal Matches.

For all their critics, Sam Stoker and Lewis Howley have proven as resourceful as they are fashionable, often retaining their titles by the skin of their teeth. Of course, their willingness to bend and flat-out break the rules has worked in their favor on multiple occasions, but have they finally met their match in the menacing Coffey brothers?

Mark and Joe also have no qualms about winning by any means necessary, either. And with a simple game plan of throwing fists now and asking questions later, Gallus seem certain to present a strong challenge to the titleholders.

Speaking of high-stakes bouts, the NXT UK Heritage Cup No. 1 Contender’s Tournament continues with the first of two semifinal matchups, as Kenny Williams and Noam Dar meet in a collision of two of the most underhanded competitors on the brand.

The Scum of the Earth took down Oliver Carter in the opening round, while The Scottish Supernova edged Mark Andrews, but only one can advance to the tournament finale.

Plus, after ending WALTER’s 870-day reign by securing a tapout victory in dramatic fashion, newly crowned NXT UK Champion Ilja Dragunov will address the WWE Universe. What will he say, and will a new challenger emerge?

Finally, Emilia McKenzie is primed to battle Stevie Turner.

noam doar will always remind me of him stealing Cedrics girl and her going " you cant break up wit MEEEEEE!"

 

[Chris]

Fun episode this week, Pretty Deadly are really having a great title reign and I think they're gonna lose every match Triple threat next week looks fun too and I think all of those guys could have a great match with Ilya, not exactly very much star power there tho lol

 

[Chris]

Who y'all got?

 

[Chris]

Ah that Charlie Dempsey dude they aired a vignette for is Regal's kid renamed too, didn't realize that at the time. Excited for him

Alicia was a great comedy character after she started the crazy gimmick. Fun fact : they used her scream in Lars Sullivan's theme song.

Frazer, A-Kid and Brown clash for right to challenge Dragunov on NXT UK
On a can’t-miss edition of NXT UK, the No. 1 Contender to NXT UK Champion Ilja Dragunov will be determined in a Triple Threat Match between Nathan Frazer, A-Kid and Rampage Brown, Wolfgang will slug it out with Teoman in an NXT UK Heritage Cup No. 1 Contender’s Semifinal Match, and more.

Last week, The Mad Russian addressed the WWE Universe to talk about winning the NXT UK Championship in legendary fashion by dethroning WALTER, who held the title for 870 days.

And when Frazer, A-Kid and Brown all staked their claim to an NXT UK Title Match to Assistant to the General Manager Sid Scala, Dragunov whole-heartedly approved of Scala’s idea to place all three Superstars into a Triple Threat Match to decide his next challenger.

After the announcement, Brown ignited a wild three-man brawl and left both of his rivals down on the canvas, setting the stage for a monumental, high-stakes battle.
Brown and A-Kid each fell just short in respective one-on-one title bouts with then-champion WALTER, while Frazer is seeking his first-ever NXT UK Title Match.

Speaking of matches with championship implications, Wolfgang and Teoman will collide in a high-stakes bout that won’t be for the faint of heart.

The Last King of Scotland bested Sam Gradwell in the first round of the tournament, while Teoman triumphed against Frazer. Now, the two competitors will face off for the first time with the winner advancing to take on Noam Dar in the finale.

Additionally, the mysterious Isla Dawn will tangle with the menacing Jinny.

Triple threat was fucking great this week, A-Kid vs Ikla should be a banger too.

Kinda disappointed in the heritage cup match tho, not necessarily that Wolfgang won (wouldn't have done it tho) but Teoman didn't look all that strong either and I've been liking him lol think it was his first loss too

 

[Chris]

I haven't gotten to the Coffey/Devlin main event yet but this was a damn solid episode so far and I'm sure that'll deliver. Regal's kid fucking rules

 

[Chris]

A-Kid/Dragunov segment was great too, I can't wait for that match
