idk if this is even the thread for it but they announced the deal with airing the UK special this morning and I have seen zero people talking about it; I didn't know about it until they said it during Raw. It will air 3pm EST/8pm GMT on Fridayquote:The WWE announced today that the debut of the WWE United Kingdom show will be a special airing on Friday, not Thursday night as was originally reported, this week. (to be clear; Pete Dunne vs Tyler Bate was announced already so definitely not a spoiler to talk about here, but ideally avoid discussing the results of the other matches)

Wonder if they're thinking of transitioning her to a wrestler later on? If they're doing a female announcer I hope they hire Veda Scott. I can't imagine any of the names listed not killing the show dead. Renee was decent enough as the third person on the announce team in NXT, but she was there to provide a different point of view, not to provide wrestling knowledge. Portia Perez works OK in Shimmer, but Veda comes across as far more professionally polished. Renee as the host, JR or Tom Phillips as the play by play man and Veda as colour commentator is probably the best we can realistically hope for.

Just do Renee Young and Daniel Bryan as commentary. Proven combination, imo.

EY/Roddy for Saturday, that's cool Also, I can't figure out why you'd change the name of someone you already introduced in storyline. Daria Baranatto is a better name than Sonya whatever.

Good episode. Too bad Hideo will never be NXT champion. Lacey & Sonya are already better than Liv/Aliyah. They took the four horsewomen & Nia out of NXT and didn't put any other woman on TV. We got stuck with Liv & Aliyah. What a sad time for everyone.

That was a good episode, and I like how Asuka's gimmick seems to be her being a two-faced rear end in a top hat. Can't wait to see how she acts if she retains at Takeover: Chicago. Shame that Itami will probably lose.

I like the little indy references Nigel sprinkles in sometimes. It sucks that Daria lost her cool name but at least she got to keep her cool music.

Re. the final brawl: announcers did a poor job selling Roode's hipocracy (how he was telling Hideo that he didn't want to fight before security came out, then yelled at him for being a coward for not getting in the ring when security held him back. I personally would have made it so Bobby Roode had hired personal security, to help build his thing of being rich, an rear end in a top hat, and a bit cowardly when it comes down to it. This way they could have actually attacked Hideo as well, rather than Hideo just kind of looking like a dick for hitting them.

I would really like Hideo to win but it feels like he's gotten the best of Bobby at every turn so I'm expecting him to get hosed out of the belt somehow. I absolutely love what they're doing with Asuka. Her being a huge rear end in a top hat in the car, then pandering to the fans, then being all,"Jesus Christ " after walking away was great.
