#2 Tyler Bate vs. Walter (NXT Takeover: Cardiff)
NXT UK has been greatly overlooked in 2019, but they delivered arguably the best pure wrestling match of the year when Tyler Bate and WALTER locked horns for 42 minutes over the WWE United Kingdom Championship. It played out like your typical David vs. Goliath contest, and both men are so incredible that you couldn't help but buy into what they were selling, with the crowd hanging on each and every move throughout the match.
Ultimately, it was the behemoth WALTER that came out on top, but as he's done so often, Tyler Bate made the most of his big opportunity, once again proving why he may be the most underrated wrestler in all of WWE today. We can't wait to see what 2020 has in store for the NXT UK brand, as this was an incredible showcase of their talent, who will one day be lighting it up on much bigger stages in WWE.
