Looking forward to catching up on this, the last UK show was great and that main event looks like it has the potential to be incredible.

I showered instead of watching this match becasue I don't like watching Banks. Glad to come back to a replay of Dar winning.

WWE is good at making their small crowds look bigger but yeah, kind of surprising.

Despite the hilarious reason WWE booked this, the reports were that tickets sold just fine.

How did that match own so hard?? I can't believe I saw a super strongman GTS. More of that, please.

If Ilja had to lose to someone, having it be someone in the "big leagues" is a good choice.

HOLY gently caress that match owned. I hate Flash/Andrews but boy did I mark when they finally won. NXT UK has been great so far.

Mark Andrews calling his SSP "Falling to Pieces" is great as a FNM fan and glad to be wrong!

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.



Wow, those UK Tag belts are gorgeous. The main roster ones look terrible in comparison.

This is a good LMS which you don't see often in WWE mainly because they are using weapons other than canes and chairs

E: :lol: that is such an rear end in a top hat heel way to win a LMS match

Yeah that match was a ton of fun, and the ending was very Gargano/Ciampa which was also great

The package for this match caught me up well, but the match itself made me feel like I really should've been watching NXT UK this entire time to fully engross myself into what was happening.

This is a good way to book a Cruiserweight Vs. Hoss Match where the Hoss looks strong without making the small guy look bad.
