GREAT: Mark Andrews defeated Nathan Frazer after an awesome back and forth opening match. This was so entertaining & the two men had great chemistry with each other.
Result – Andrews Wins By Pinfall
Dakota Cohen WR Star Rating – 3.75 Stars
AVERAGE: Pretty Deadly were seen practicing a Magic Mike type performance inside a room with choreographers. The people told them they did great and blended in better than the thought they would. This was so strange, but it wasn’t necessarily bad.
GOOD: Dani Luna defeated Stevie Turner in an impressive showing from both women.
Result – Luna Wins By Pinfall
Dakota Cohen WR Star Rating – 3.25 Stars
GOOD: Nina Samuels was backstage doing her talk show & Isla Dawn walked by and wouldn’t be interviewed by Samuels. Samuels then started complaining about how Aleah James thinks she’s important & says she’s really not. James then comes from behind her and tells her she’s going to request a match with her. This was quick, but progressed a couple storylines.
GOOD: Subculture were shown celebrating backstage & Blair Davenport told them they should stay at the bottom & walked off. This set up the eventual Luna v Davenport match very well.
GREAT: Mustache Mountain defeated Symbiosis, Jack Starz & Dave Mastiff, & Ashton Smith & Oliver Carter in a very fast paced & entertaining match to become number one contenders for the NXT UK Tag Team Championships.
Result – Mustache Mountain Win By Pinfall
Dakota Cohen WR Star Rating – 3.75 Stars
Overall, this was not the greatest episode of NXT UK ever, but with three very solid matches, this was an extremely easy hour of TV to watch. The main event and the opening match were both very fast paced and fun to watch. The women’s match was not very long but the pacing of the show made it feel very important.
