Not have Alex Shane be involved.

That was a great show and I'm looking forward to the UK show if they build it around the people in this tournament, who pretty much all had something to offer.

Caught this at a friend's house. Really loved both nights. Outstanding work all around.

It's amazing how when you make wrestling an athletic competition, and give people a reason to boo a bad guy and a reason to cheer a babyface, people get over and championship titles mean something.

Imagine that. Such a concept.

Maybe if they did that on Raw more often, I'd watch it.

They'd have to have actual wrestling on Raw to make it an athletic competition.

It's almost as if for all its tremendous flaws of which there are many, there's a reason WWE is a multi-multi-million dollar conglomerate.

Two hours, and WWE managed to make a contemptible heel and a face that had the whole place on their feet cheering for him.

So what's the plan for the belt now? Network-only show? Quarterly tournament?

It's not that kind of test.
Dunne/Andrews was my fave but that main event was super good too. Merge this with 205 Live and you'd have a stellar roster/show.

As far as we know, Network show.

Tbh I expect it to tape months at a time like NXT and then maybe UK Show Guys will eventually move to Raw or SD, also like NXT.

Is Tyler Bate the youngest champion in WWE company history? I think Paige won her NXT Women's title a few weeks before turning 21

Renee was 19 when he won that so I guess they are tied.

Nah, Bate's closer to 20 than Dupree was.
