    AVERAGE: Wolfgang defeated Sam Gradwell in an alright match two falls to one to move onto the semi finals in the UK Heritage Cup Number One Contender’s Tournament. 

    Result – Wolfgang Wins Two Falls to One

    GOOD: A video package was shown highlighting Blair Davenport’s dominance from last week & then cut to Sid Scala who said that Davenport will be suspended due to her actions. This was good follow up after what happened last week. 

    GOOD: Kenny Williams and Noam Dar both had promo packages after that, hyping their match for next week & they are both great at promos, so this was very entertaining. 

    GOOD: Gallus were walking backstage & an interviewer asked Wolfgang how it felt to move on & Gallus started dancing and singing & then Jordan Devlin walked out of a door and started making fun of them until they walked away. This teased the beginning of what could be a great feud between Gallus and Devlin. 

    GREAT: Oliver Carter, Saxton Huxley & Ashton Smith defeated Symbiosis in a very fun & lengthy six-man tag. Oliver Carter looked like an absolute star in the match. 

    Result – Carter, Huxley & Smith Win

    Dakota Cohen WR Star Rating – 3.75 Stars

    GOOD: Stevie Turner was asked backstage how she feels about her loss to Meiko Satomura & she said that now she knows how she can beat Satomura. Then, Emelia McKenzie walked up & said that she shouldn’t be bad mouthing the champion & that she will beat Turner next week just like Satomura did. This was simple, but effective. 

    GOOD: Pretty Deadly then had a vignette shown where they basically said they were going to beat Gallus next week. This match should be good. 

    GREAT: Ilja Dragunov vs WALTER was then shown, which this time included commentary from Dragunov himself & his thoughts about it. Others that gave their thoughts on the match during it were Cesaro, Rhea Ripley, Drew McIntyre, Finn Balor, Sheamus & hearing their insight was very cool. Not much I can say about this match that hasn’t already been said, but it was still amazing on rewatch.

    Result – Ilja Dragunov Wins the NXT UK Championship

    Dakota Cohen WR Star Rating – 5 Stars

    This was not the best episode of NXT UK overall, but it was still enjoyable with a great rewatch one of the greatest matches in NXT history. The reason the match did not get PERFECT is because it was a replay of the orginal match. The six man tag was very very well put together and the opening match felt a little flat during parts of it.

    Show Theme and Presentation: 7/10

    Watchability: 8/10

    Storyline Progression: 7/10

    Production: 8/10

    Crowd Reaction: 6/10

    Overall Rating: 7.1/10
