Pete Dunne is only twenty five years old. That fact is still amazing to me. He has already had classic matches with the likes of Tyler Bate, Ricochet and now Joe Coffey. Where will he be in terms of match quality in a few years? It will be very exciting to follow his WWE career for sure.

The main event between Pete Dunne and Joe Coffey was a thirty-five minute classic. It was filled with painful submissions, risky top rope moves and many great near falls. The intense pace by both competitors for that lengthy of a bout was quite impressive. I knew Pete Dunne could put on a fantastic match but to see Coffey at that level sets up the brand well for the future. Coffey looks like a credible champion of the future.

Much like a movie with an after-credit scene, NXT UK saved a great surprise for the end. Walter, the famous Austrian independent wrestler, made his debut. The crowd was excited and it sets up a fantastic main event for the future. NXT UK it seems is always looking forward to the next feud.
