    After a strange episode last week that was partially the result of poor pacing, NXT UK looks to bounce back and have a good episode with a gauntlet main eventing.

    GOOD: Noam Dar defeated Nathan Frazer in a really fast paced & entertaining Heritage Cup Rules match to open up the show. Considering Dar had been losing a lot recently, he needed a win. Both men looked great.

    Result – Dar wins 2 falls to 1

    GREAT: An intense backstage confrontation took place after Sam Gradwell got in the face of Trent Seven while Seven was attempting to help Jack Starz because Starz seemed sad. Gradwell told Seven that he is a loser & Seven slapped him. This feud has been great.

    AVERAGE: Mark Andrews defeated Levi Miur in a decent match that was the introduction of Subculture, a group consisting of him, Dani Luna & Flash Morgan Webster. 

    Result – Mark Andrews wins

    GREAT: A backstage sit down with A-Kid & Tyler Bate started when A-Kid said his life has been better since he’s become Heritage Cup Champion. Bate then said that he was made for the Cup. A-Kid said it isn’t his & that he beat Bate before. Bate said that he will not make mistakes and that he is better. Bate said that he is not chasing A-Kid, he is in his own lane. This was fantastic. 

    AVERAGE: In the first match of the five woman guantlet, Isla Dawn defeated Emilia McKenzie. The match was short, but decent.

    Result – Isla Dawn wins

    Dakota Cohen WR Star Rating – 2.25 Stars

    AVERAGE SQUASH: In the second match of the five woman guantlet, Isla Dawn defeated Dani Luna in what was essentially a squash match.

    Result – Isla Dawn wins

    AVERAGE: In the third match of the five woman guantlet, Meiko Satomura, who was a replacement for Xia Brookeside who was taken out by Amele, defeated Isla Dawn. 

    Result – Meiko Satomura wins

    Dakota Cohen WR Star Rating – 2.75 stars

    AVERAGE: Meiko Satomura defeated Jinny to win the guantlet in an alright match to become number one contender for the NXT UK Women’s Championship.

    Result – Meiko Satomura wins

    Dakota Cohen WR Star Rating – 3 stars

    Not a great week for NXT UK in terms of match quality, especially since none of the matches in the gauntlet were very good, or got much time at all, but the pacing of this show was much better than last week. The introduction of Subculture was decent, though their music was a bit generic. Next week, A-Kid v Tyler Bate for the Heritage Cup Championship should be an absolute banger.

    Overall Show Rating: 6.6
