NXT UK Media catches up with Sam Gradwell.

They ask him about last week’s confrontation with Trent Seven and his “choice words” for him. Yeah, Trent Seven is the “dirt worst,” isn’t he? Gradwell won’t just stand and- SEVEN ATTACKS! He CLOBBERS Gradwell and then runs off as security and trainers tell him to leave. Gradwell is fuming, will the Thunderstorm make sure Seven gets what he deserves?

NXT UK Media also catches up with Fallon Henley.

How is she enjoying her time here in the UK? So far, it’s been pretty amazing. The food is outstanding, but she is struggling with the time zone change. But then Isla Dawn comes creeping up, grinning and giggling. Um, can Fallon help her with something? She was in the middle of an interview. Isla reaches out to touch Fallon but Fallon backs up. Fallon says Isla’s creepiness shtick isn’t going to work so just go somewhere that’s not here. Isla laughs as she leaves, but has the Wicked Witch found a new little pretty to play with?

NXT UK shares a digital exclusive.

After the show last week, Dave Mastiff found Josh Morrell and congratulated him on his first win in NXT UK, and how it was over Primate. Morrell appreciates that, and Mastiff says Morrell must be feeling great, and thinking he can ride this wave. Unfortunately, he’s going to crash at some point, and that will be next week against Mastiff. Well, alright, Morrell will give everything he has in that ring. Good to hear. The Bomber heads out, is he going to end Morrell’s win streak at one?

NXT UK Media catches up with Wolfgang.

He’s playing around with the football (soccer ball for Americans), and the reporter asks if he heard the comments made by Ilja Dragunov. Yes, Dragunov respects Wolfgang. That’s nice and appreciated. The NXT UK Champion respects Wolfgang. And the feeling is mutual, because how can you not respect The Czar? Look at the list of contenders he’s had. But Dragunov should be careful what he wishes for. It takes a certain kind of someone, a certain mentality to be able to walk into the lion’s den, to get into the ring with a dangerous animal like Wolfgang! Wolfgang will remind everyone just how bad he can be! Someone needs to take that title, so why not Wolfie?

Amale VS Stevie Turner!

The French Hope hoped Blair Davenport’s comments weren’t about her, and Blair made sure Amale understood they were about everyone. But the Fourth Dimensional Superstar just had to get her jabs in, too. Will Amale make Stevie, and Blair, understand not to get on her bad side?

Speaking of Blair, she’s on commentary to watch this one closely. The bell rings and Amale circles with Stevie. Blair knows Amale is strong and smart, but she’s also got a short temper, like a spoiled brat, and that will be her downfall. Stevie waistlocks but Amale resists the lift to switch around. Amale takes Stevie to ropes but Stevie bucks her to run in. Amale deflects the boot to roll Stevie up, TWO! Alame facelocks but Stevie endures.

Stevie goes to ropes, fans rally up, and Stevie kicks Amale away. Amale keeps after Stevie but Stevie BOOTS her down! Stevie stomps Amale, CLUBS her, but Amale throws body shots. Stevie CLUBS Amale again, puts her on ropes and CHOKES her! The ref counts, Stevie lets off at 4, then she runs to BOOT WASH! Amale flops down and Stevie is fired up! “Four D, baby! Four D!” Fans rally for Amale but Stevie KNEES her down! Cover, TWO! Stevie is annoyed but she drags Amale up.

Amale throws body shots, Stevie CLUBS her again, then turns her for a neckbreaker stretch! Stevie pulls on Amale’s head with that cravat and Amale endures, until Stevie drops for the NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Stevie fumes but fans rally. Stevie drags Amale up, reels her in, but Amale throws elbows. Stevie throws knees, then Stevie whips Amale. Amale reverses and puts Stevie in a corner, but Stevie BOOTS back. Amale runs in again to CLOBBER Stevie! Fans fire up with Amale and she CLOBBERS Stevie again! Amale drags Stevie up, whips her to a corner and hits a clothesline, to a BULLDOG! Cover, TWO!

Amale is frustrated but the fans still rally up. Stevie goes to a corner, Amale runs in but she blocks a boot to KNEE Stevie down! Amale runs side to side to BOOT WASH in return! Amale drags Stevie up and hooks her up, HOPE BREAKER! Cover, Amale wins!

Winner: Amale, by pinfall

Blair Davenport isn’t impressed, but perhaps NXT UK management is. Will Amale find her way back to an NXT UK Women’s Championship match? Or will Blair make Amale beware what’s coming next?

NXT UK shares what happened after last week’s main event.

Meiko Satomura and Sarray returned backstage, victorious, and Emilia McKenzie was there to greet them. Meiko thanks her protégé, and then thanks the Warrior of the Sun. Sarray thanks Meiko, and says that being able to team up with a legend like her makes Sarray very happy. However, she wants to be Meiko’s next challenger. Will she accept? Meiko leads the way towards the General Managers office, that could be a yes. But Nina Samuels pops in to say her ears are burning. Can Emilia explain what those two were talking about? Nothing to do with Nina. Emilia heads off and Nina frowns. Will Nina have to wait before she can get another “exclusive” scoop?

NXT UK Media catches up with Mark Andrews & Wild Boar.

How do these two feel about the NXT UK Tag Team Championships being held by an American team in Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen? Well, Andrews says he and Boar got up close and personal with those two, and credit where it is due, Briggs & Jensen are a great team. They will do a great job representing this brand on the other side of the Atlantic. But it’s also time those two bring those titles back to the UK, where Andrews & Boar will be the first team waiting for them. Boar tells Briggs & Jensen that Andrews & Boar are going to bring those titles home. Will this new South Wales Connection conquer the NXT UK Tag Division?

Sid Scala speaks.

The Assistant General Manager knows “it has been made clear” that Ilja Dragunov and Wolfgang have respect for one another, but also a desire to compete against each other. So to make it official, in two weeks, it will be Dragunov VS Wolfgang for the NXT UK Championship! Will the Czar be able to fend off the Last King of Scotland? Or will Wolfgang be howling to the moon after the biggest win in his NXT UK career?

Joe is proud of his brother, because that means this is still their kingdom! Will the fortunes of Gallus be brighter than ever from here on out?

My Thoughts:

A great episode of NXT UK, but especially the main event. Carter VS Teoman was a very good opener, and Carter getting a win was a bit of a surprise with Die Familie all around, but Die Familie also stands tall by beating him down. I thought someone was going to back Carter up, but maybe that’ll happen next time. Good promo segments to set up coming matches. Seven had a great blindside attack on Gradwell, and Isla did good creeping up on Fallon. Those matches will be a lot of fun, but I was surprised by the promo from Mastiff and Morrell. I won’t say Mastiff was being a Heel, but he definitely has that edge of being the veteran to Morrell being new.

Good promo from Wolfgang to call out Dragunov, and of course the UK Championship match was made. That is going to be awesome, but I don’t see Dragunov losing. Amale VS Stevie was a good match but they did not know how to have it and Blair on commentary at the same time. It took them a couple times to realize they could do picture-in-picture of it. Amale of course wins to build momentum, she and Blair are going to have a good match. And we got a decent segment out of Sarray, Meiko, Emilia and Nina. I knew they were going to steer this to the NXT UK Women’s Championship, Meiko VS Sarray will be an awesome match for sure, and with Briggs & Jensen having won the tag titles, there’s a good chance Sarray wins this title so that the women of NXT UK are aiming for a new target.

Speaking of the NXT UK Tag titles, Boar & Andrews have a good promo to call out Briggs & Jensen. I really expected Briggs & Jensen to have a title defense on NXT UK first but they’ll get that done on NXT 2.0. Briggs & Jensen will probably beat Pretty Deadly, and they will certainly beat Andrews & Boar. And then that Heritage Cup Championship was awesome stuff. Now, they always push these to the late rounds, but somehow, they also find a way to pace these out so it is still exciting. Mark getting a submission win in the second was great, and then for it to come down to the wire was great.

Mark winning was the right move, as was Joe Coffey not turning on him. We just got Seven betraying Tyler Bate, and a piss poor execution of Cora Jade turning on Roxanne Perez, so the Coffey Brothers sticking together is the right call.

My Score: 8.6/10
