BRM Reviews the 10/7/2021 NXT UK

VIDEO PACKAGE FOR THE MAIN EVENT- good

EMILIA MCKENZIE vs. JINNY (w/Joseph Connors)- 6.75/10
Connors kept causing a distraction, so Meiko Satomura came and took him out. Jinny won anyway.
Jinny cut a promo after the match saying that no one would stand in the way of her destiny. Meiko into the ring to have a stare-down with Jinny and held the belt up, seemingly accepting the challenge.

BLAIR DAVENPORT HAS A MEETING WITH SID SCALA- good
Sid tells her that she is reinstated, but only because Stevie Turner requested it. He warns her that such behavior will not be tolerated in the future. She says fine, but tells him that she always gets what she wants.

A-KID VIDEO PACKAGE/PROMO- decent build for his title shot

MARK ANDREWS vs. SAM GRADWELL- 6.75/10
Holy crap they let Gradwell win clean!

“FLASH” MORGAN WEBSTER SLAPS SHA SAMUELS FOR NO REASON- bad

ILJA DRAGUNOV VIDEO PACKAGE/PROMO- awesome

HERITAGE CUP #1 CONTENDERSHIP TOURNAMENT FINAL MATCH: Wolfgang (w/Gallus) vs. Noam Dar (w/Sha Samuels)- 7.25/10
Dar scored the first fall when Jordan Devlin came out and caused a distraction by attacking Joe Coffey. That was at the end of the second round. Then they went and undid all of that by having the third round go about five seconds, with Wolfgang spearing Dar right away and pinning him.
The match was exciting, but they were a little too cute with the “saved by the bell” stuff throughout. It was nice to see Dar get the (mostly) clean win here, capping off one heck of a night for the heels. Heritage Cup Champion Tyler Bate came out to have a little stare-down with Dar.


A good episode of NXT UK, even if the main event didn’t quite deliver for all of the build.
Hold #712: ARM BAR!
