Now Dempsey has joined the ranks and will go one-on-one with Joe Coffey. This will be Dempsey\u2019s biggest test since joining NXT UK and it\u2019ll be interesting to see how his unique style plays against \u201cThe Iron King\u201d. <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2021\/01\/29\/meiko-satomura-signs-nxt-uk\/\" target=\"_self\">Teoman, Raja and Dempsey all signed with NXT UK at the start of 2021.\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>A-Kid vs. Frazer in Heritage Cup No.1 Contender Match<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>A-Kid<\/strong> has had some disgustingly good matches this year with the likes of <strong>WALTER<\/strong>, <strong>Tyler Bate<\/strong>, <strong>Jordan Devlin<\/strong> and NXT UK Champion <strong>Ilja Dragunov<\/strong>. <strong>Nathan Frazer<\/strong> has also had some cracker contests, most recently with Mark Andrews. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This week the two will meet in a Heritage Rules match to determine who will challenge <strong>Noam Dar<\/strong> for his Heritage Cup Championship.
