NXT 1/15/2020, Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic 2020 – The Broserweights VS South Wales Subculture!
The only part of this that wasn’t from NXT UK was The Original Bro! Matt Riddle & Pete Dunne were on a road trip to glory, were Flash Morgan Webster & Mark Andrews just a speedbump?

Winners: The Broserweights, Matt Riddle pinning (advance to the next round)
Incredi-BRO! Like peanut butter and chocolate, this duo just seems to work. In the end, this combination would win the cup, but would be broken up by circumstances beyond their control. Riddle is now on SmackDown, Dunne is now a King of NXT, will they ever meet in the ring again?
NXT UK Superstars have well wishes for the holidays!
Tyler Bate says Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to the fans, and Xia Brookside finishes trimming the tree as she wishes us a Very Merry Christmas. Jordan Devlin has been told to wish us all a Merry Christmas, so here it is. His gift to us? How about in 2021, he gives us one more year, 12 more long months as the longest reigning Cruiserweight Champion in history? And then, the French Hope, Amale, wishes us a Merry Christmas, or as they say in France, “Joyeux Noel.” Levi Muir, the newest NXT UK superstar, “The Best Athlete in the Game,” wants to take a second to wish us all a Happy Holidays. Eat, drink, love, laugh and enjoy the festivities.
Aoife Valkyrie also wishes us a Merry Christmas to all the NXT UK viewers, and thanks us for making her debut year one she’ll never forget. Tyson T-Bone wishes us all a Merry Christmas, as does The Modfather, Flash Morgan Webster. FMW even wishes the NXT UK roster a Happy Holidays, except for Eddie Dennis & The Hunt, who can go play in traffic. Cheers, lads!
A-Kid says, “Hola,” and wishes us a very merry Christmas, all in Spanish. Isla Dawn wishes everyone a happy yuletide season. Joseph Conners knows it’s that “festive” time of year, where everyone must ask themselves if they’ve been worthy, or not worthy. Conners knows which category he falls under. “Yes, boy!” Pretty Deadly’s Sam Stoker & Lewis Howley wish us all to stay safe, and though our lives aren’t as great as theirs, to still have a Merry Christmas. Piper Niven also wishes us all a very Happy Holidays.
Sam Gradwell admires his little train and has some “festive pleasantries” as he wishes us a Very Merry Christmas, and tells us to get on it, “you bunch of yogurts.” Same goes for Lil’ Gradwell! Eddie Dennis quotes American businessman, James Cash Penney, “The spirit of Christmas is the spirit of giving, and forgiving.” Dennis does NOT forgive SWSC, but The Hunt have a gift waiting for them in the new year.
“Queen” Jinny gives a Christmas “speech.”
“As this year has passed by us so quickly and draws to a close,” we take time to reflect on what we have achieved. Be proud of your accomplishments, no matter how irrelevant they or we are. “This year has shown that no matter what, nothing will hold us down. The relaunch of NXT UK showed the entire world how passionate every single roster member is about this great business. And most of all, I returned more ruthless and fabulous than ever.” Explains why the slideshow is only of her… Jinny says she inspired so many all around the world. And despite the fact we will never be as successful or as fabulous as Jinny, we can be mediocre, just like Piper Niven.
“The year 2021 is just around the corner, and it will provide us all with a new, clean slate. A new book with empty pages to write words on.” Of course, Jinny doesn’t simply write words in books. She has an assistant to do that for her. But 2021 will be the Year of the Fashionista, and she will put every single girl in her place on her way to being crowned Queens of NXT UK. But she still wishes us all a Very Merry Christmas. She knows we won’t have a spectacular day celebrating like Jinny does, but that is because we do not live a life of luxury like her. She still hopes we can celebrate with what little we all have. Merry Christmas, and stay safe.
NXT UK goes back to Andy Shepherd.
“Humble and inspiring as ever,” Jinny is. No doubt her stocking will be overflowing as every year. But from Night Bridge to the North Pole. Or is it the Black Country?
Dave Mastiff welcomes us to more of this special episode of NXT UK! He may be The Bomber, but this special time of year, he is Banta Claus! The NXT UK roster has sent Banta their Christmas lists. Jack Starz would like some life insurance after all the beatings he’s taken. Tyson T-Bone wants more crayons to color himself in. Noam Dar wants a great, big, giant gobstopper. Ilja Dragunov wants decaf coffee and a meditation guide. And TRIPLE H wants a multipack of flavored water. Joe Coffey wants a brand-new cricket bat. When NXT UK wakes up on Christmas, they’ll find which list they’re on. The Naughty List gets seasons beatings from Dave Mastiff!
More NXT UK superstars wish us well!
Mark Andrews wants to wish us all a Happy Holidays, except for of course, Eddie Dennis & The Hunt. Then he sings his own cover of Jingle Bells, “Wild Boar smells, Primate ran away~!” Ashton Smith says it’s the festive season! If you’re lucky enough to have your loved ones nearby, hug them, kiss them and make sure you cherish them. If not, just give them a call! Right, Oliver Carter? But anyway, he hopes we all have a Merry Christmas. Aleah James wishes us a Very Merry Christmas and hopes that we all get what we wanted this year. Amir Jordan wishes us a Happy Holidays, hopes we stay safe and enjoys the festivities.
Dani Luna wishes us all around the world the Merriest of Christmases and the Happiest of Holidays. Kenny Williams hopes we have more luck this year than he does, as he has a goofy sweater from Amir. Oliver Carter wishes the whole WWE Universe a Merry Christmas. Oh and he should call Ashton. But that’s future Oliver’s problem.
Nina Samuels wishes us all a Very Merry Christmas. Except for Xia Brookside. Gallus all together wishes us a Gallus Christmas. Noam Dar says it’s the holidays, and he would like to wish us fans a very special Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah. Then for the real fans, the Pinky Party, get an even bigger Christmas and Hanukkah. See you next year, thank you, bye-bye. Rampage Brown even wishes us a Merry Christmas! Jack Starz also wishes the entire WWE Universe a Merry Christmas. The Hunt’s Wild Boar wishes us a Merry ChristMRAAAA! And Assistant GM, Sid Scala, wishes us all a Happy Holidays.
Saxon Huxley has a lot of Christmas spirit as he wishes us a Merry Christmas. Ilja Dragunov says on this day, “when we always realize the love and appreciation for our close ones is truly Unbesiegbar,” he wishes us all a Merry Christmas.

Winner: WALTER, by submission (still WWE United Kingdom Champion)
The Ring General conquers the Iron King! Imperium joins him in celebrating, despite only have the one title to their name. But even so, Imperium has THE title in NXT UK. Will it be only a matter of time for them to completely take over the brand?
Of course, a part skipped was the shocking sneak attack by The Undisputed Era to get Imperium’s mind on them and Worlds Collide. Imperium managed to win that battle, as well, only cementing their foundation in NXT UK.
Next week will be a special New Year’s Eve NXT UK!
Pretty Deadly, Sam Gradwell, Gallus’ Mark Coffey & Wolfgang, as well as Tyler Bate and Jordan Devlin will be major highlights of another festive episode! Until then, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
My Thoughts:
Well of course the holiday episode was simply replays of matches, but they were both great matches to choose from. I like that pretty much the entire NXT UK roster was featured in this episode with their holiday video messages to us, probably the one time when everyone in NXT UK will be seen on one episode. I like that Webster and Andrews took digs at Dennis and he gave them back, gotta keep the rivalry alive. Jinny’s “speech” to the fans was very well done and very Jinny.
While broadcast did not actually have the entire match of Broserweights VS South Wales Subculture, I kept it all because I have it all on record from January so it was only fair to have it all. Same goes for the Blackpool II WWE/NXT UK Championship match. Obviously it was a great reminder of Walter’s dominance, even though we just saw him and Dragunov destroy each other in October. Maybe part of this is to also suggest Coffey could come back for a third attempt at the title, though I’m not sure we’re getting Blackpool III in 2021 because of COVID.
My Score: 8.3/10

Winner: Ren Narita, by submission (still NEVER Openweight Champion)
Another day, another way for Ren to cheat and steal this title away! Then the House stomps away on Oleg! Wolf returns to run them off, but he was not enough to even the odds during the match. Wolf grabs a mic to tell Ren, “What do you think you’re playing at? See if you can step on me one more time! Put that belt on the line and fight me! I promise to take back that title!” The Wolf has eyes on his prey, but will he huff ‘n’ puff and blow the House of Torture down? Or will they stack the deck too high for anyone to overcome?
IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship: Yota Tsuji VS Andrade El Idolo!
What was meant to be former friends settling a grudge is now a second chance for a “Real Latino Man.” Gabe Kidd is hurt, so Andrade is back again, but will he redeem himself from the New Beginning in USA? Or will Gene Blast still be golden?

Winner: Andrade El Idolo, by pinfall (NEW IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion)
An instant classic and an absolute shocker at the same time as Andrade has his revenge! Yota went from two belts to none, what will his journey of redemption look like?
As for Andrade, Tanahashi presents him with the belt, and Andrade holds it high. This is not only a win for the United Empire, but a win for AEW and the Don Callis Family. Andrade grabs a mic to say, “I did it.” The fans applaud, and Andrade continues by saying, “I wanna say thank you. Yota Tsuji is good, he’s an amazing talent, but Andrade El Idolo was better tonight.” The fans applaud again, and Andrade says he knows many know he is an AEW talent, but this title is NJPW’s. So Andrade will now officially be working in both companies, both companies are in his blood. And he wants to thank everyone here in Japan for watching.
Andrade says he now has a question, and it is a simple one: Who wants to challenge him? The fans applaud, and Andrade drops the mic. Andrade holds up the belt again, but wait! Stepping out in a nice suit is Drilla Moloney. But then Shota Umino is also here, still in ring gear. Andrade likes where this is going as the two challengers talk on stage. 44 Caliber and Roughneck both go to the ring, and Andrade asks if they heard what he said. So Drilla wants this title? And Shota wants it, too? Then he has an idea.
If they want this title, HIS title, why not this just be a Triple Threat for the Global Heavyweight Championship? Just say where, when, and what time. Then The RRRREAL~ Latino Man will be there! The fans cheer as Andrade is already raising the bar on this belt! Andrade says just call and he’ll be there. Andrade tells the fans, “Arigato!” The fans cheer, but will Andrade regret stacking the odds for his first defense? When and where will we see this shootout happen?
My Thoughts:
A great start to the Wrestling Dontaku double event, and quite the surprising result for the main event. While House of Torture shenanigans were 1000% expected for Narita VS Oleg, that was still a great match. But at the same time, as great as Oleg is, he was not going to become a TRIPLE champion between the NJPW Strong and both NEVER Openweight titles. Aaron Wolf stepping up to Ren is good stuff, but seriously, can Tanahashi use his authority to put ringside bans up? It’s actually bad kayfabe logic from management to not see that as an option.
But as I was saying, amazing main event, and Yota losing is pretty wild. I suppose even if this was Yota Tsuji VS Gabe Kidd, Gabe winning would’ve worked in story, too, positioning this title as a crossover title between NJPW and AEW. Yota’s story of making a comeback will be an intriguing one. Perhaps he uses the G1 Climax as his road back. As for Andrade being up for the Triple Threat with Shota and Drilla, that’s pretty cool, too. I don’t see Andrade losing his first defense, but a Triple Threat is a classic way to keep all parts strong no matter the result.
My Score: 8.9/10

Backstage interview with Kris Statlander, Hikaru Shida, Harley Cameron & Mina Shirakawa.
Renee Paquette is with all four women in a familiar situation, and thanks them all for accepting the No Physicality Agreement. Renee understands Shida has something to say. Shida says yes! Shida again says she is so sorry, Stat, and that she will make it up to her! That’s why Shida got Kris another tag match! But against THESE TWO! Harley acts surprised, and sarcastically asks if Shida is really allowing herself to wrestle someone not on her level. Can she even talk to someone “not” on her level or what? How does this work? Shida says enough, Harley! You don’t even deserve to touch the kendo stick! Shida then uses Japanese to hide her comments about Harley & Mina having nothing but bosoms.
Mina says enough! Stat, how can you still trust Shida? How can you give her another chance? And… Where was Kris the night Toni was attacked? Shida says enough about Toni! Harley tries to reason with Kris, but Kris storms off. So is that a yes to the match? Mina apologizes to Harley, Harley says she has no idea what to say, but will the Wild Aussie & Fighting Gravure Idol let their actions speak for them against #Shidalander?
Ace Austin & Juice Robinson VS Wheeler Yuta & Daniel Garcia!
The Bang Bang Gang has been struggling to stay afloat, and now they go up against The Death Riders’ Decoder & Dragon Slayer! Will Yuta & Garcia keep the momentum going from what Moxley and the others did earlier tonight? Or can these Collision Cowboys ride off into the Peoria sunset with a win?

Backstage interview with The Divine Dominion.
Lexy Nair is with Megan Bayne & Lena Kross, and Megan says no, she’s not with them, she’s beneath them. Just like this entire Women’s Division. Lena says Divine Dominion just defeated Stat & Shida, two former world champions, and two of the best in this company. And yet they crumbled at Divine Dominion’s feet! What two other women even have a prayer? Can Lexy think of them? Wanna try? N-NO, absolutely not. Then the only hope this Women’s Division has is if the gods themselves take mercy on their souls and strike these two down. Otherwise, just stop trying. Megan & Lena have spoken, but will that challenge soon be matched?
Skye Blue VS Nixi XS!
The Chicago Skye looms dark over Peoria, especially after she and the Triangle of Madness misted Persephone full in the face just to cheat a win last week. But will Skye make sure to leave her opponent black ‘n’ blue tonight? Or will the Alien Girl shine through with neon colors?

AEW TNT Championship: Kevin Knight VS Hook w/ The Opps!

Hook tried to take this title, even had Shibata-sensei there to tip the scales, but it just wasn’t enough to stop The Jet from taking off! But will Knight soon make himself a double champion? Or will Darby Allin’s relentless reign not stop just yet?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision to follow a great Dynamite, but naturally status quo is kept with all these title matches. I liked the Jurassic Express National Tour vignette, and that was an awesome match in Jack VS Dorada. Anna Jay also looked great in her return, but of course Willow wins to keep the TBS title. Good promo from after Dynamite with Kris being rightfully angry with Shida, and good promo from #Shidalander with Harley & Mina. I feel like they can do a two-in-one, where Shidalander falls apart to set up their feud, while also giving Harley & Mina reason to become a team to help bolster the Women’s Tag Division.
Speaking of, very good promo from Divine Dominion to address how they’re dominating the division. There are only so many teams in the tag division so we need an influx of more, maybe have some crossover with Stardom and CMLL real quick, really spice things up as we get closer to Forbidden Door. Skye Blue of course won, and pretty dominantly at that. I can’t tell if Julia Hart is resting from an injury or what but she wasn’t even ringside for Skye, hopefully things are alright. Very fun trios match from Conglomeration VS MXM TV, great win for Conglomeration, but AEW needs to figure out more trios. Putting Ciampa with FTR is still a great team, but they gotta get longer running teams going, like LFI or maybe even Shane Taylor Promotions.
Awesome stuff with that 10 Man Tag, so wild and chaotic in a good way, but I figured Death Riders & Dogs would win. The Dogs need to stay afloat without Gabe Kidd as their anchor, and there’s the whole story with Ospreay that Death Riders need to stay strong for. Great tag match from Yuta & Garcia VS Ace & Juice, too, and great win for Bang Bang Gang. Especially with a return from Austin & Colten Gunn, because now we can get Bang Bang Gang VS Death Riders in an 8 Man Tag, someone going after the Continental Championship for it, who knows what else. For that matter, Bang Bang Gang needs to get back in those tag and trios divisions to at least bolster the ranks.
And great main event with the TNT Championship. Hook looked good for most of this, but the German Suplex was a bit janky. Thankfully, Knight is so tall and athletic that he made himself look even cooler in his escape. Knight of course won, mostly because it is more exciting if he has a chance of becoming Jet Two Belts. He won’t, because Darby and MJF are still building towards their rematch for Double or Nothing, but Knight will look awesome again. If anything, Knight VS Shibata should be the TNT title match for Double or Nothing, that’s a great story of student and teacher they can easily reference in the build.
My Score: 8.9/10
