BRM Reviews the 7/15/2021 NXT UK

TRIPLE H HYPES UP ILJA VS. WALTER II- great!

ILJA VS. WALTER PRESS CONFERENCE- GREAT!

SUBCULTURE PROMO- decent
They build up the idea of them becoming the brand’s first two-time champions.

ASHTON SMITH & OLIVER CARTER vs. ROHAN RAJA & TEOMAN- 7/10
A great and very intense opener, with the heels going over mostly cleanly.

WE GET AN UPDATE ON A-KID’S INJURY- Well.. we didn’t get an update, but we did get A-Kid demanding a thirty-minute Ironman match against Jordan Devlin to humiliate Devlin as revenge for Devlin injuring him.

AOIFE VALKYRIE PROMO- great!
She responds to Jinny’s promo last week. That match should be great.

PRETTY DEADLY PROMO- fine

NXT UK WOMEN’S TITLE MATCH: Meiko Satomura(c) vs. Amale- 5/10
This was a fine little defense in between big ones for Meiko, but I don’t think Amele looked strong enough to gain anything from the loss, either. She did as well as you would expect and undercard wrestler to do.

BREAKING NEWS: WALTER VS. ILJA II WILL NOT BE HAPPENING NEXT WEEK- Apparently there was an “incident” backstage after their press conference. Details are sketchy, but we know that WALTER’s hand was injured and the doctors have determined that he won’t be able to wrestle next week.

NXT UK HERITAGE CUP TITLE MATCH: Tyler Bate(c) (w/Trent Seven) vs. Mark Coffey (w/Wolfgang)- 6.5/10
This was disappointing for a title match main event, and the fact that it came after the other meh title match and the news that we’re not getting Ilja vs. WALTER next week made it even more disappointing.

This was a disappointing episode of NXT UK. There was some good stuff, but the last half hour was quite disheartening. Hopefully they don’t put WALTER vs Ilja off for too long.
Hold #712: ARM BAR!
