The return is a success! Will Jordan and Williams finally be dancing to the tag team championships?
NXT UK shares footage from after last week’s major tag title announcement.
Imperium’s Fabian Aichner & Marcel Barthel were very upset. “Every single person in that crowd knows that Marcel Barthel and Fabian Aichner had Gallus beat in the middle of that ring! It is a disgrace that we have to prove we are the rightful tag team champions in a ladder match!” Barthel adds that if it’s a ladder match, that’s fine. It goes against Imperium’s beliefs, because pro-wrestling is SACRED. But if this is what they have to do to change things for the better, then that’s fine. Imperium will leave Blackpool as the NXT UK Tag Team Champions. Will Aichner and Barthel take over at TakeOver?
El Ligero speaks.
“The first time I ever met Kassius Ohno was back in 2004.” At the time, he was just a skinny kid barely wrestling for two years. On that night, Ohno was gracious enough to give some advice. Ever since then, Ligero had nothing for respect for him. For years, he just wanted to face off with him. That happened this past April, and Ohno won. But Ohno won by turning Ligero’s mask around and giving him an elbow to the back of the head. That was when Ligero realized that it didn’t matter how much respect Ligero had for Ohno, when Ohno had no respect for Ligero. So when they face off again next week, Ligero promises to knock some respect into the Knockout Artist!
Trent Seven is here!
The Man from Moustache Mountain smiles and high-fives fans but is here tonight to speak. “Now, I’ve been around this business for quite some time now.” Seven likes to think he’s had a pretty good grasp of how things work. So it seems pretty obvious that Eddie Dennis wants Seven’s attention. They both grew up in the same wrestling circles, watching each other, cheering for each other. They know each other. Seven has been in the crowds cheering for Eddie. But when Eddie grabbed Seven’s hand from the crowd and they locked eyes, that was not the Eddie that Seven knew. Then Michael May, that young wrestler just trying to make it into NXT UK last week, had his chance taken away by Eddie, as some weird gift to Seven. “It’s just weird, Eddie, I don’t understand it.” Just come out so this can be sorted.
Eddie Dennis appears! But he doesn’t go to the ring. What is he doing? Seven wants Dennis to join him in the ring. Eddie surely remembers being the guy that quit being a teacher to follow a dream, and he did it! He’s here in NXT UK! But Seven knows that opportunity was taken with that injury. Being out must do things to someone, and maybe that’s what we’re seeing. Seven gets why Dennis would target him, as someone here at the start of this brand. Seven is proud to be a pillar of the UK brand. Now Dennis gets in the ring with a mic of his own. And he HITS Seven with it! “I’ll see you at TakeOver: Blackpool.” Dennis finally gives us a clear message, but the motivation is still unknown. What will Seven’s response be when NXT UK returns to the Empress Ballroom?
Things have caught up to Kay Lee Ray.
She beat Toni Storm at TakeOver: Cardiff, and now she owns the “one thing that mattered to her most,” the NXT UK Women’s Championship. It isn’t part of Toni’s identity anymore, but KLR’s. KLR thought it was the last we’d see Toni in NXT UK. “Playing nice never got me what I deserved. Playing nice never got me what I wanted. Playing nice never got me the NXT UK Women’s Championship.” Every storm comes to an end.
But Piper Niven was storming up after her! They also have known each other for years. KLR says a lot of things, but makes sure to say what will hurt the most. And when words wouldn’t work on Piper, KLR SLAPPED her. Only for Piper to hit back! And then, so did Toni! Toni came out of nowhere, back for revenge. Toni admits she did let the NXT UK Women’s Championship define her. It gave her a sense of purpose, and then she lost it. Without that, what is she? She got angry at Piper for helping her out. Piper struggles seeing how her friends have ended up. Toni is angry and obsessed, KLR is vindictive. Toni says Piper was a very good friend for a long time, but so was KLR. Who can Toni trust?
In the end, all three women will fight for the NXT UK Women’s Championship in a Triple Threat! Piper is in the match because she’s earned her spot, and because she’s just as good, if not better, than both KLR and Toni. Toni vows that she won it once, she can win it again. Toni will be the first two-time NXT UK Women’s Champion. But KLR vows to carve her legacy once and for all. Who wins this historic match when NXT UK returns to Blackpool?
Next week gives us the Best of 2019!
NXT UK will relive the last 12 months to highlight the best men, women, matches and moments! What favorites of yours make the cut?
Jinny w/ Jazzy Gabert VS Amale!
The French Hope makes her NXT UK debut, but will she be hoping it was against someone other than the Spoiled Princess?
The bell rings and fans taunt Jinny as she circles with Amale. They tie up, Jinny SLAPS Amale then rams in knees! Jinny brushes herself off before bring Amale up. Amale hits back with body shots but gets another big knee! Jinny throws Amale by her hair then rains down angry rights and even lefts. The ref backs Jinny off and she cools off, only to come back with ferocity and bump Amale off buckles. Jinny bumps Amale again but Amale blocks and elbows back! Amale bumps Jinny! Amale whips Jinny to ropes, Jinny slips under to trip Amale up into the Fashionable Surfboard! Jinny rocks back and forth but Amale endures to pop free and get the ropebreak! Jinny lets go at 4 and argues with the ref.
Jinny scowls but Amale pushes her away. Jinny stomps away at the ropes! She lets up at 4 when the ref backs her off, but Jinny glares from across the way. Jinny runs in corner to corner but Amale dodges! Amale shotgun dropkicks! Side to side, BOOT WASH! Amale grabs at the legs but Jinny pushes her away. Jinny gets up and slips out to the apron to then KICK Amale and sweep the legs! Slingshot senton! Cover, TWO! Jinny is on Amale and DECKS her with a right! Jinny hooks Amale up in the ropes, draping FACEBUSTER! The Makeover hits hard, Jinny covers, Jinny wins!
Winner: Jinny, by pinfall
Jazzy nods and smiles. The Alpha Female and the Fierce Fashionista are both going strong, but they’re not done. Jazzy drags Amale up and reels her in for a LARIAT! Fans boo and jeer but Jinny isn’t satisfied. She tells Jazzy to do it again. Jazzy drags Amale up for another LARIAT! Wait, another? Even Jazzy is surprised by this. Jazzy grabs Amale’s arm, but lets go? Jazzy refuses to be ordered around, and storms out of the ring! Is this the end of the alliance between beauty and beast?
Radzy tries to get an interview with Imperium this week.
We knew from last week that they weren’t in a good mood over the Fatal 4 Way Ladder match being made, maybe they’re feeling better tonight? Walter answers and Radzy asks about the TakeOver: Blackpool II WWE United Kingdom Championship match. Walter doesn’t care about Joe Coffey right now. What is important to him right now is that in two weeks, Alexander Wolfe beats down the “puppet,” Ilja Dragunov. Imperium will then have the advantage going into Blackpool. Walter leaves it at that, even wishing Radzy a good day. But will it be a bad day for the Moscow Madman on the first NXT UK episode of 2020?
Tyler Bate VS Noam Dar!
The Big Strong Boy has been to quite a few TakeOvers, but the Scottish Supernova wants to go to the next one. Will Dar prove himself worthy by beating the inaugural United Kingdom Champion?
The bell rings and fans are strongly behind Bate as they sing. Dar just shrugs it off as he and Bate circle around the ring. They tie up, they go around, and Bate puts Dar in a corner. Bate lets up cleanly to check the mustache. Dar circles with Bate again, waistlocks and drags Bate down, then switches to a facelock. Bate works his way up and slips out to go after the arm. Dar reverses to keep wrist control, fans sing for both men as Bate and Dar fight for control. Bate rolls, kips up and pries free to snapmare Dar down. Dar slips out to get the arm again for an armlock. Fans cheer the technical exchange, and Dar keeps Bate down as he changes position. Fans rally up, Bate gets up but Dar wrenches again. Bate squats and pries free to get another wristlock. Dar gets to ropes fast and Bate lets up.
Dar and Bate circle again, tie up with knuckle locks, and Dar drags Bate in to get the waistlock. Bate standing switches but so does Dar, and again, and again, and again, until Bate drops down to shove. Dar holds ropes, baits Bate in but Bate saw the table top coming. Bate waistlocks and lifts but Dar resists and arm-drags free. Bate kicks low, underhooks but Dar slips out. Dar misses his leg sweep and his clothesline, but he avoids Bate’s rebound lariat! Bate grins as he almost had Dar, and fans cheer for this great exchange. Dar and Bate reset and circle again. They tie up again, Dar gets an arm and pushes Bate to a corner. The ref counts, Dar lets up only to sucker punch! Dar shouts “I’m the Big Strong Boy now!” as he flexes. Fans boo because they disagree. Dar whips Bate corner to corner, but Bate goes into a headstand a la Jack Gallagher!
Bate keeps Dar away with a foot, then the other foot. Bate bicycles and headscissors then arm-drags and dropkicks! Dar bails out as Bate kips up. Bate hurries out after Dar and puts him in the ring.

Bate sits up first but Dar uses the ropes to get to his feet. Bate runs in, Dar puts him on the apron. Dar dodges Bate’s counter punch to sweep the leg! Dar runs to baseball slide and wreck Bate! Dar goes out to fetch Bate and throw him into steel steps! Bate writhes while Dar leaves him behind.
The ring count begins and climbs to 5 before Bate sits up. Bate crawls at 7, but springs in at 9.5! Dar is seething and he gives kicks to Bate’s chest. Fans rally as Bate takes more Number 11 Kicks, and catches them! Bate throws hands! He has Dar in the corner! Bate whips corner to corner but Dar reverses, only to run into the boot and knee! Bate hops up, flying uppercut! Dar flounders and Bate runs at him with big elbows! Corner uppercut! EXPLODER! Bate doesn’t kip up right away, that bad leg bugs him.

Bang was better late than never! Bate underhooks, TYLER DRIVER ’97!! Cover, Bate wins!!
Winner: Tyler Bate, by pinfall
Devlin slides right in, but Bate has Bop and Bang at the ready! Devlin slides back out, and fans mock him with “Nana na na, Hey Hey Hey, Good Bye~!” Bate says if Devlin wants him so bad, how about at TakeOver: Blackpool II? Devlin doesn’t give an answer, but surely Johnny Saint will consider it. Will Devlin and Bate finally settle things when NXT UK returns to where it all began?
My Thoughts:
A really good episode overall, but with not as much Blackpool set up as I thought. Trent Seven and Eddie Dennis had a great segment, because while Seven did a lot of good stuff talking, Dennis had the perfectly short and sweet and sinister move to just hit Seven and make the challenge. Seven VS Dennis should be a great opening match for that event, if not second match on the card. We also got a great Triple Threat promo for the NXT UK Women’s Championship match. I love that this is also a story of three friends where the title and success has tainted KLR and is starting to do that to Toni, with Piper being the pure Face in this. It just furthers how I can’t be sure who comes out of this, just knowing that all of them will have a strong showing. Then the Imperium promos tonight were good, both Aichner & Barthel being upset but determined, and I like that Walter is taking things one match at a time.
Jordan & Williams VS Pretty Deadly was a fun tag match, but of course Jordan and Williams win to make their return worth it. Their possibilities are very open, but perhaps they just end up losing to whatever Heel tag team champions come out of Blackpool. Jinny VS Amale was good for a slight squash match. The best part to come out of this is that the break-up of Jinny and Jazzy is happening already. And not because Jinny was being too brutal, but too bossy. The Alpha Female will obviously want to be the alpha, so maybe these two fight to see who has control of Jazzy: Jinny, or Jazzy herself. Maybe winner of that is also the next challenger to the Women’s Champion. Bate VS Dar was incredible, practically TakeOver worthy in itself! I figured Devlin would show up, but I expected a direct interference. Bate still winning was still a great move, and now we’re likely to get Bate VS Devlin at Blackpool, which will be a really great match. If only it was for a micard title.
My Score: 8.3/10

It’s the WWE Backlash Countdown Show!
Join Michael Cole, Wade Barrett & Big E in discussing, analyzing and predicting all the action on this highly anticipated night!
Backstage interview with Lyra Valkyria.
Byron Saxton is with The Morrigan and asks how she is feeling tonight. She looked up to Becky Lynch for so long, only for her to stab her in the back. And at the same time, Lyra has dedicated this match to Bayley. How is Lyra going to manage all her emotions? Lyra says there is so much going on in her head, but the way to deal with it is focusing on the main emotion: embarrassment. She gave herself “the ick” looking back and seeing how she ate everything Becky fed her. Becky would’ve had a friend for life in Lyra, but then Becky turned on her. And what did The Man expect? For Lyra to run home to Dublin and cry?
No! That shows Lyra that Becky underestimated her. Lyra meant it when she said she is the better wrestler now. Becky may still be the bigger star, but when that bell rings, Lyra will show that she was never a stepping stone. Becky becomes Lyra’s stepping stone, as well as the crowning name on the long list of opponents when Lyra retains the Women’s Intercontinental Championship. Lyra is locked in, but will the Luck of the Irish favor her in the end?
Vic Joseph joins the panel!
The Voice of NXT helps plug Battleground, but he also gives Lyra her props. From NXT UK to NXT USA, Vic has seen Lyra achieve her potential every step of the way. The NXT Women’s Championship match between Lyra and Becky was all about someone from the NXT roster stepping up and proving herself, and Lyra did just that. Lyra took the NXT Women’s title off Becky, but will Lyra keep the Women’s Intercontinental title from Becky? Or is #BeckyHogan going to step on Lyra to get ahead?
Jackie Redmond & Peter Rosenberg tag in for the panel.
Cole & Barrett have to go prepare for calling Backlash, so Jackie and Peter join Big E in looking back on memory lane. John Cena VS Randy Orton as a rivalry predates the iPod, Wikipedia, and even the original Xbox! 25 years later, will this truly be the end of an era for WWE?
Pershard Owens sings the Star Spangled Banner.
Talkin’ ’bout a detonator…
The fuse is let, and tonight is about to be explosive. Egos, attitudes, grudges, ambitions, motivations, and glory, it’s overflowing! WrestleMania was historic, but now everyone will face the Backlash!
WWE United States Championship Fatal 4 Way: Jacob Fatu VS Drew McIntyre VS LA Knight VS Damian Priest!
The Samoan Werewolf only just took this title “for the family” at WrestleMania, and yet now the stakes are raised! The Scottish Warrior wants to fight a real fighter, the Mega Star wants to redeem himself from his loss, and the Archer of Infamy wants to kill two birds with one stone by avenging his own loss while putting gold back around his waist. Will one of these challengers get what they want? Or will Fatu dog walk all of ’em, YADADA MEAN!?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see who’s really all gas and no brakes with it!
The bell rings and the fans rally up as all four men look at each other. Knight talks some smack but St. Louis is loud for “FATU! FATU!” Knight runs up to throw hands on Fatu, Priest and Drew go after each other! Fatu fires back and they trade shots. Priest and Drew are on the outside while Knight throws hands “YEAH! YEAH!

Winner: Jacob Fatu, by pinfall (still WWE United States Champion)
The Samoan Werewolf may not like Solo bringing in a ringer, but he still keeps his gold. Will nothing stop “the family” now that they’ve reloaded the arsenal?
WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship: Lyra Valkyria VS Becky Lynch!
When they say, “Never meet your heroes,” perhaps those people were talking about this scenario right here. The Morrigan & The Man were bonded by their Irish blood, and by how the younger followed in the footsteps of the elder. They’ve battled over the NXT Women’s Championship and even won the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships at WrestleMania. But the moment they lost those titles, Becky showed her true colors and betrayed Lyra! Becky called Lyra “recycling,” or rather, “less offensive trash,” but will Becky be the one thrown out this time? Or will Becky take away a title just as Lyra did to her back in the day?

WWE Intercontinental Championship: Dominik Mysterio VS PENTA!
Though it took a Fatal 4 Way to win it, and an Irish Ace in the hole to keep it, “Dirty Dom” thinks he is already the greatest Intercontinental Champion of all time, as well as the greatest Mysterio and the greatest luchador ever.

GUNTHER VS Pat McAfee!
Once again, Der Ring General lost a championship, at WrestleMania, against someone he surely felt was beneath him. And while his ego was still hurting, he lashed out against Michael Cole in an attempt to intimidate and silence commentary. Pat stepped up for his friend, got beat up for it, but he isn’t going to back down just because Gunther is a bully. In fact, Pat has always believed in standing up to bullies, which is why he’s getting back in the ring! Will Pat win one for all the underdogs out there? Or will Gunther unleash all of his anger and silence Pat for good?
