PLAY BY PLAY
Walter is here!
The longest reigning NXT UK Champion ever, Der Ring General, is back on NXT UK! His soldiers in Imperium are in the states trying to dominate NXT USA, but Walter is here to say, “Recently, I have defended the NXT UK Championship twice in the same week, on two different continents.” And now, Walter is THE longest reigning champion in the modern WWE. “This title is now one of the most prestigious prizes, the grand prix of professional wrestling!”
But Walter is also here to remind everyone that his motivation and his mission have not changed. Any time Walter steps in the ring, he is still driven by the force to respect and restore the honor of this great sport. Walter will forever be the NXT United Kingdom Champion! Walter holds up his title, but then, who will step up and try to change all that?
NXT UK shares footage of Jordan Devlin arriving at BT Sports Studio earlier today.
The Irish Ace smiles, as he sees his demands have so-far been met. He has a lavish private locker room, and takes a moment to prepare for his return to NXT UK. That return, will be next!
Subculture speaks.
Since day one, Jinny’s been looking down on Dani Luna because she doesn’t fit Jinny’s “mold” for a WWE superstar. Flash Morgan Webster doesn’t want to even get started on how Joseph Conners has done the same to him. Conners wants to prove he’s worthy, but he’s only worthy of getting his head kicked in. If Joseph & Jinny want to talk about Subculture so much, then they’re in luck. It’ll be Dani & FMW taking on Jinny & Joseph in a mixed tag! Start from the bottom, fight to the top! That’s #Subculture!
Jordan Devlin VS Saxon Huxley!
The Irish Ace is back in action and already going big for his return! Will the Divine Beast of the Astral Plane have to fold his hand as Devlin cashes in?
The bell rings and Devlin circles with Huxley. Devlin avoids Huxley’s boot but Huxley corners him. The ref counts but Huxley tosses Devlin into the buckles. Devlin dodges Huxley to fires off haymakers and a CHOP! Huxley just gets mad! Huxley blocks a punch, wrenches the arm and ROCKS Devlin with body shots! Huxley TOSSES Devlin across the ring, then corner SPLASHES! Huxley headlocks and grinds Devlin down. Devlin pulls hair, puts Huxley on ropes, and the ref counts the ropebreak. Devlin wrenches at 4 to CLUB the arm and whip. Huxley reverses but Devlin dodges. Huxley dodges Devlin to run Devlin over! Huxley scoops, spins and SLAMS Devlin, then covers, TWO!

Huxley gets up in a huff and drags Devlin out of the ring! Huxley gets Devlin up to whip him HARD into barriers! Devlin tumbles over, Huxley drags him back to ringside and gets him up to SNAKE EYES off more barriers! The ring count is 8 of 10 but Huxley puts Devlin in at 9! Huxley gets Devlin up to bump off buckles then BOOTS him down! Huxley scrapes his boot off Devlin’s face again and again but lets off as the ref counts.

Devlin survives and Huxley is beside himself! Huxley stomps around, slaps himself, and gets Devlin in a fireman’s carry. Devlin fights free, and HEADBUTTS Huxley in the back of his head! Devlin steadies himself, ripcord, DEVLINSIDE!! Cover, Devlin wins!!
Winner: Jordan Devlin, by pinfall
Devlin had to work off some rust and get back into the groove, but he got back in the win column! Will Devlin keep his ego in check to get back to some gold? Or will things only get harder from here on?
Pretty Deadly is here!
The NXT UK Tag Team Champions, Sam Stoker & Lewis Howley, are going to join commentary to watch the tag division in action! Will these self-proclaimed “tasty dishes” see something appealing after the break?
Gallus meets with Sid Scala in his office,
Mark Coffey & Wolfgang are making sure cameras get this as they argue about who is better overall. Mark says he can do at least 10 things better than Wolfgang. Like for one, throwing! Don’t throw Sid’s laptop! He knows Gallus makes a great team, but after talking with Johnny Saint, it has been decided that Gallus will prove themselves worthy in singles competition. Wolfgang likes that! Mark says he can beat his guy faster than Wolfgang does his guy! But then Sam Gradwell barges in, sees Gallus there, and apologizes for interrupting this “pointless bit of nothing,” and will check with Sid later. “In a bit, YOGURTS!”
Wolfgang calls dibs on Gradwell! Sid says he will see what he can do, so Gallus goes for a pint. And Wolfgang makes it a competition again by saying he can drink more faster than Mark. But will the Thunderstorm be a bit too much to make a bet over?
Symbiosis w/ Eddie Dennis VS Andy Wild & Dan Moloney!
The Welsh Dragon has helped Primate and Tyson T-Bone evolve, but they still need something to make them the alphas of NXT UK. Will making a meal of Wild and Moloney be what they need to go after Pretty Deadly’s titles?
The teams sort out, Moloney starts with Primate and they circle. They tie up, Primate kick slow then CLUBS Moloney down. Moloney gets to ropes, Primate headlocks and grinds Moloney, but Moloney throws body shots. Moloney powers out but Primate rams his shoulder into him! Primate headlocks again, Moloney powers out but Primate blocks the hip toss to uppercut and knee low! Primate has Moloney in a facelock now, but Moloney powers up! Wild tags in, Moloney WRINGS Primate, and Wild runs Primate over! Primate gets to the Symbiosis corner, T-Bone tags in. T-Bone ties up with Wild, they go around, and T-Bone puts Wild in a corner. Wild dodges the haymaker to headlock!
T-Bone throws body shots, powers out, and Wild rams him! T-Bone stays up to RAM Wild into a corner! T-Bone drives his shoulder in again and again, but lets off as the ref counts. Wild dodges, snapmares and drops elbows on T-Bone! Cover, TWO! Wild wrenches, tags Moloney, but T-Bone gets away. Moloney dropkicks, waistlocks but T-Bone bucks free. T-Bone catches Moloney’s crossbody and makes it a BACKBREAKER! T-Bone gives Moloney a FALL AWAY SLAM! T-Bone KICKS Moloney towards the corner, gets him up and CLUBS him hard in the back! Dennis likes that as T-Bone tags Primate.
T-Bone drapes Moloney out along the ropes for Primate to springboard ax handle Moloney down! Primate CLUBS Moloney then hits a BIG back suplex! Primate stays between Moloney and Wild and stomps Moloney towards the Symbiosis corner. Primate DECKS Moloney, gets him up and clubs him more. Tag to T-Bone, Symbiosis whip Moloney HARD into the corner then throw him down, for a DOUBLE STOMP! Cover, TWO! Moloney flounders away but T-Bone stops him from reaching Wild. Moloney throws hands but T-Bone gets around to hit a BACKBREAKER! Moloney writhes but still tries to kick T-Bone. T-Bone stomps Moloney then puts him in a corner.
Moloney BOOTS T-Bone, hops up, then leaps, but into T-Bone’s arms again! T-Bone tries another Fall Away Slam but Moloney lands on his feet! Moloney JAWBREAKERS then dropkicks T-Bone down! Moloney hurries, hot tag to Wild! Hot tag to Primate but Wild goes Wild on Symbiosis! But Primate CLUBS him from behind! Symbiosis whips Wild into their corner, but Wild still fights back with a BOOT and a forearm! Wild DECKS T-Bone and clinches Primate for an OVERHEAD Belly2Belly! Wild hurries to cover, TWO!! Dennis is frustrated as Primate staggers about. Wild gets Primate, whips him out then back in hard, but Primate ducks under! EXPLODER!
Wild staggers up into Primate’s SPEAR! Tag to T-Bone, then tag right back. T-Bone scoops and Primate climbs, POWERSLAM and then a forearm for Moloney! Primate hits a DIVING HEADBUTT on Wild, covers, Symbiosis win!
Winners: Symbiosis, by pinfall
Pretty Deadly talks smack on dry, leathery T-Bone and pale, hairy Primate, but will they be made to eat their words along with their own teeth should this dangerous duo come for their gold?
Teoman speaks.
“Oliver, I won’t allow you to interfere with my business again.” But he’s in a good mood because his family is happy, so he is happy. He reminds everyone that he is willing to put every member of the NXT UK roster in the hospital. Oliver’s family doesn’t want to see him in the hospital, right? And what about Ashton? Would he even visit Oliver? Ashton is Oliver’s tag partner, not his family, so the answer is NO. That is their weakness. The Evil Eye sees all. Will it help Teoman see Oliver’s tragic future and make it a reality?
NXT UK Women’s Championship: Kay Lee Ray VS Meiko Satomura!
The Scary Queen of Scots claims that she will reign then, now and forever! She and the Final Boss faced once before, and KLR came out the winner. But will Meiko use what she learned in that first match to turn the tables and take the throne?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and for the second time on the NXT UK brand in the year 2021, we witness a historic battle!

KLR runs in and CLOBBERS Meiko, then growls as she looms over her. Meiko sits up, KLR CLUBS her down!
KLR paces, brings Meiko up and reels her in for a suplex to GOURD BUSTER! Cover, TWO! But KLR drags Meiko into a KOJI KLUTCH! Meiko fights free to an STF!! KLR resists but Meiko still gets the crossface! KLR pries at the hold, reaches and crawls for ropes, to get the ROPEBREAK! Meiko lets off at 2, and BT Sports Studio is fired up as KLR drags Meiko to the apron. KLR spins Meiko to ROCK her with a forearm! KLR shoves Meiko back in, takes her time returning, and step-in KNEE DROPS! Cover, TWO!! Meiko survives KLR’s springboard improvisation, but KLR clamps onto her with a seated cobra twist. Meiko endures as KLR stretches and grinds her shoulders!
Meiko isn’t giving up, so KLR throws Meiko down by her hair! KLR seethes as she stands on Meiko’s face! The ref counts, KLR lets off and paces as she thinks. KLR brings Meiko up, whips her to a corner, but Meiko goes up and up, only to leap into a BIG forearm shot! Cover, TWO! Meiko isn’t done yet, she might be proving even tougher than last time.

KLR fights to get the crucifix takedown to ghost pin, TWO! KLR tries a Canadian rack to get to the Gory, but Meiko slips out, spins KLR and hits a DDT!
Meiko fires up, runs, and handsprings but KLR dodges the kick! Wait, maybe a toe makes contact! Meiko covers, TWO! KLR finds a way to survive, but Meiko gets her up.

Winner: Meiko Satomura, by pinfall (NEW NXT UK Women’s Champion)
Forever ends on June 10th, 2021, the 649th day of KLR’s reign! And it was a battle truly worthy of two of the best women in the WWE AND THE WORLD! Meiko raises the title over her head and streamers fly! She has dethroned the Scary Queen of Scots, what will it take to stop the Final Boss now?
My Thoughts:
What an awesome episode! For one, I am happy the main event got about 20 minutes. That is a main event length, and we got true main event, title match action. They did a great job making us think KLR was going to run away to avoid losing, but it was great that Meiko intercepted her and forced things to finish. I had a feeling this was finally the time, and it was! Meiko is our new champion! KLR could stick around since the series is tied, but she could also move on to NXT USA to mix it up in the other NXT Women’s Division. When we all say NXT has the best women’s division around, NXT UK needs to be included, and this is your evidence.
We also got some good matches made for the following weeks. The promo was horribly mic’d, but I like that Gallus is going to have separate matches. Wolfgang VS Gradwell is going to be a really good match. I don’t know who Mark could face that is considered tougher, unless he literally makes it a Beat the Clock Challenge, trying to beat Gradwell even faster than Wolfgang does, assuming Wolfgang beats Gradwell at all. Teoman has a good promo to call out Oliver Carter, and their match is going to be really good, but I think Teoman wins again. Smith & Carter might force Teoman to take them on in a tag situation, so who knows how that goes.
We also didn’t get much more on the stare down of Joe Coffey, Rampage Brown and Ilja Dragunov that ended last week other than a quick recap thing they had to open the night that I ended up skipping. It wasn’t much so whatever. Walter’s appearance to open the night was alright, but again, it didn’t build off anything from last week, either. They could’ve had him address the three men at the end of last week, but nope, just the usual, “I am Walter, I am the most dominant man in NXT UK, and I always will be.” I hope next week does better on that front. Maybe it starts with promos pointing out how Walter didn’t do jack, and the contenders argue about who steps up to him. Boom, there’s our Triple Threat.
I think it was rather amusing to have Pretty Deadly on commentary, ripping jokes on a Heel team like Symbiosis. Pretty Deadly are entertaining enough to be a Tweener team, making fun of Heels and Faces alike and letting fans choosing a side in the moment. Symbiosis of course wins, but it’s great how jobbers in NXT UK aren’t just scrubs. Wild & Moloney put up a great fight but in the end, T-Bone & Primate had better teamwork. Symbiosis can definitely get in the tag title mix, along with Gallus, Smith & Carter and Subculture. Oh, and let’s not forget Noam Dar & Sha Samuels and Moustache Mountain as possibilities if they really need to.
Subculture had a decent promo to set up the obvious mixed tag match we were getting, but I’m a little disappointed that we didn’t get it as Jinny & Joseph VS Dani & Andrews. Maybe Andrews is a little banged up and FMW is still fine, but it just seems a little off target from what it looked like. Devlin’s return was pretty great overall. He gets his great looking dressing room, he and Huxley have a very good match, but Devlin naturally struggles to give some drama to it. Devlin’s ego could be a good foil to Tyler Bate’s new Zen based modesty, we get a killer Heritage Cup match, and either way, Devlin’s building himself back up in NXT UK.
My Score: 8.5/10

Stuff happens, maybe it doesn’t, Dreamer and Delirious can’t book.

Well Trick Willie is the new TNA champ and this is the first iMPACT since his win…so let’s just hear him talk about it.

Ratings:
- The Rascalz vs Fir$t Cla$$ vs Laredo vs The System: Rascalz win via Meteora – ***
- Raj Singh vs Mustafa Ali: Ali wins via…No Shit – Squash Garbage
- ASH by Elegance vs Lei Ying Lee: Lei wins via Spinning TKO – ** 3/4
- Mance Warner w/SDL vs Jobber: Mance wins via Hit the Pay Winda – Squash

Results:
The Rascalz vs Fir$t Cla$$ vs Laredo vs The System
Octagon got jumped by The System earlier so Laredo is fighting alone. Another backstage jumping is getting a little dumb.
Laredo and Trey start. Typical Indie start with Simultaneous awful Dropkick spot and bad counters, AJ blind tag runs the smaller guys over, tags out to KC and the Rascalz instantly get the moment. KC is rocked, tags in Laredo and Laredo takes out the System before Lish gets on the apron and grabs Laredo. The referee kicks out Lish and Rehwoldt on commentary points out it’s a No DQ match so that’s dumb.
KC gets tossed at AJ, he catches him, Rascalz Dive and do their taunt as we go to commercial. We come back, Tennessee Whiskey into a KC tag in for the near fall on Laredo. Corner combo, Snapmare into Flip Forward Neck Breaker, KC is on a roll. AJ tags Laredo and starts talking crap to KC, they swerve and go Finger Poke of Doom, but it’s not a legal pin. Suddenly tornado attacks, System and Rascalz go for broke, AJ hits the Senton to break the eventual pin, Laredo counters AJ’s Chokeslam attempt. Trey clears out The System, Wentz sends himself and KC over and out, Laredo with a Corkscrew Moonsault, which looked cool but it’s the pile of morons waiting to get hit spot.
AJ hits the Down Payment on Laredo, but Trey blind tagged AJ. Meteora on AJ, Trey pins Laredo and Rascalz win.
Raj Singh vs Mustafa Ali
Raj looks like shit in the gear he came down in…and he wrestles equivalently. I would rather anyone else comeback…give me Anarquia.
Ali murders Raj, Instant Dropkick, Rolling Neckbreaker, Corkscrew Standing Moonsault, it’s not close. Raj tries to counter things but Ali Bellclap, a little Duck the left, connect the right. Raj even does a terrible looking Punch Combo, he’s in bad shape, a bad looking Ushigoroshi, Raj with a sloppy looking something, 450 ends it.
Fire Raj as quickly as you brought him back. You don’t need a comedically pathetic job guy when the roster is like 4 guys getting pushed and everyone else sucks. Stop being stupid. Ali still hates women too.
This Injury Report is the dumbest segment in the history of wrestling. Stop treating fake shit as “serious business”.
ASH by Elegance vs Lei Ying Lee
ASH mocks karate stuff, Lei throws a few Rising Crane kicks as ASH bails and then things slow down a little. But a Pump Kick, Sliding Kick and Low Dropkick cause ASH to cower and claim her tooth broke. It’s a bait to pull Lei into the turnbuckles and them get in a few stomps. Ash keeps Lei in the corner, Suplexes her ankles into the buckles and then Ash throws a few Booty Shots/Hit Attacks then starts a grounded stretch, Lei Headscissors her down, still sells the hips and ankles, but dodges and fires, combination strikes into the 10 Count Down Strikes. T-bone Suplex, into the pinfall, for only two.
Cheapshot into Running Meteora from ASH for two. Ash goes for the Miz Yes Kicks and Lei No Sells and asks for more. Gorgeous Capture Suplex into Thunder Struck and TKO with flair. My baby has a better finish now! Yay!
Mance Warner w/SDL vs Jobber
Hannifan cursing and being pissed at Trick for not even showing but is more entertaining than a squash match. Not that Mance’s offense is bad, but 2 out of 3 job matches is stupid.
.@milanmiracle and @AriannaGraceWWE make history as the first father/daughter tag team in TNA!

Santino Marella & Arianna Grace vs Robert Stone & Victoria Crawford w/Tessa
Marella tries to tie up with Robbie, but he bails and tags out to Victoria so Arianna comes in and aside from Alicia Fox’s silliness, the tie up was decent with Arianna and Victoria. Tessa interferes and the Referee throws her out. Victoria comes back in and aside from a slight miscommunication with how Arianna does her punches, Alicia Fox is making her look…pretty good. Transition moves, okay brawling and Arianna looks amazing in her outfit.
Rob and Santino distract the referee and Victoria hits a Figure Four into her Northern Lights Suplex, only for 2. Arianna finally Back Body Drop to find the tag, Santino and Rob, Santino does his split dodge into the Standing Headbutt, Arianna Cross Body onto Victoria. Rob pulls out the ref, then shoves the ref into Santino, Santino into the steps and Arianna attack but Alicia and Lish, the fix is in, Arianna eats the pin.
International Championship: Steve Maclin (c) vs Matt Cardona
A few quick brawl moves, Shoulder Tackles, Strikes, Back Breakers, Cardona does get dumped out and eats a SCUD. Maclin bounces Cardona’s face off the apron and hits an Elbow off the apron to keep Cardona reeling, but a dodged tackle sends Maclin into the steps. Cardona tries to Piledriver Maclin on the ramp, but Back Drop counter, into commercial.
Formulaic commercial etiquette of Cardona still in control, throws Maclin into the ropes, Diving Shoulder Tackle lays both dudes out and they get up by 8. Fighting Spirit spot, Cardona hits ropes and gets hit by Maclin twice, Thesz Press, Ground and Pound, Back Elbow and Olympic Slam has Maclin rolling. Splash into Lariat for two. Maclin has been all gas no brakes. Cardona tries to take a few shortcuts that turns into a Straight Jacket Takedown. Cardona to the top, Maclin cuts him off, Superplex spot. 1-2-kick out!
Maclin goes topside for a Jar Headbutt, Cardona hits the ropes so Maclin crashes into the corner, 2 Reboots connect, the third gets caught, counter into Busaiku Knee, Jar Headbutt. In and out, Cardona uses the middle rope for the Low Blow, Killswitch from Cardona but Maclin kicks out. Cardona dodges and shoves Maclin towards the ref, he puts the brakes on, Radio Silence! 1-2-Kick out! Maclin catches a top rope move, Power Bomb, Corner Splash, Tree of Woe, Caught in the Crosshairs, KIA and Maclin retains!
Overall Score: 4.5/10
Boring paint by numbers show, no Trick, System has one move, Robert Stone is a scumbag, too long to introduce new girls, lots of throw away segments and Rosemary sets up YET ANOTHER Monster’s Ball match. These aren’t interesting when there’s one every 3 months. So we can have terrible Monster’s Ball matches quarterly, Barbed Wire Massacre and Clockwork Orange House of Fun…BUT NO LOCKDOWN!?
Go home TNA, you’re drunk.

Speaking of which, Kosei Fujita now makes his way out here to be face to face with Yoh. Yoh holds the ropes open for Fujita to step into the ring. Fujita and Yoh get face to face, and Fujita points at the tag title on Yoh’s shoulder, because he also wants that belt. Yoh knows, since he and Wato took it from Fujita & Eagles. But Yoh dismisses Fujita, they’ll meet again on June 1st. Yoh then takes up the mic to tell Fujita, “Ya bastard… I’ll show you true chaos! Now, just one more win. In Ota, the best wind will blow.” Yoh drops the mic to leave it at that. Will that wind be the winds of change? Or will Yoh fail to bring down The Mighty Japanese Young Punk?
Here are the FINAL B Block standings!
YOH: 6-3, 12 points [FINALIST]
El Desperado: 6-3, 12 points [ELIMINATED]
MAO: 6-3, 12 points [ELIMINATED]
Taiji Ishimori: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Robbie Eagles: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
SHO: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Nick Wayne: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Kevin Knight: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Titan: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Ryusuke Taguchi: 3-6, 6 points [ELIMINATED]
My Thoughts:
A great night to wrap round nine and therefore the round robin portion. No repeat BOSJ finalists, which is actually great because now we’ve got a fresh match-up. Taguchi VS Knight was still a great match for not affecting outcomes, and Knight gets to return to AEW with a win. The flipside is Titan gets a win over Nick Wayne, I really do think it books itself, Nick VS Titan for the ROH World TV Championship on Grand Slam: Mexico. Christian Cage can even be condescending to Nick over how Nick didn’t make it to the finals, adding to that feud. Nick can beat Titan in the rematch, then get in Christian’s face to make a match for All In: Texas, or at least Supercard of Honor where ROH titles should be showing up anyway.
Great stuff with Mao and his team against Sho and the House of Torture. I was pleasantly surprised that Mao won, and I wonder if the House of Torture goes to a DDT Pro show to battle it out with Strange Love Connection. Mao winning also added great drama to the remaining matches, Despy VS Eagles was awesome stuff, probably the actual best match of the night. Yoh VS Taiji wasn’t quite as hot going by the crowd, but Yoh getting the win to shut the door on Despy was good. Yoh VS Fujita will be great, a bit hard to call, but that makes it fun.
My Score: 9/10
