For the most part, this was an immensely hard-hitting contest, with Trent&#8217;s Seven Stars ripcord lariat turning The Scottish Supernova inside out while Noam&#8217;s northern lariat nearly decapitated the <strong>British Strong Style<\/strong> member. Seeing that he was unable to put Seven down, however, Dar grabbed the trademark <strong>Moustache Mountain<\/strong> towel that his opponent had brought to the ring with him, blowing his nose in it in an attempt to rile up Seven. Clearly, it worked as the moustache extraordinaire went ballistic and beat Dar to a living pulp. The referee had no choice but to disqualify Seven for continuing the assault past the five count, resulting in a victory for Noam Dar. Not exactly the cleanest route to victory, but a win&#8217;s a win nonetheless.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">EXCLUSIVE: Like it or not, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NoamDar?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@NoamDar<\/a> did earn himself a victory over <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/trentseven?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@TrentSeven<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NXTUK?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#NXTUK<\/a>! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7FNYa12FTj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/7FNYa12FTj<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NXT UK (@NXTUK) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NXTUK\/status\/1176948765296447489?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">September 25, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3><strong>War Of Words<\/strong><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&quot;You didn&#39;t impress me.&quot; -@Jordan_Devlin1 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NXTUK?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#NXTUK<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>\ud83e\udd37\u200d\u2642\ufe0f <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8fU9koyVum\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/8fU9koyVum<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NXT UK (@NXTUK) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NXTUK\/status\/1176938892349472768?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">September 25, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>For the first time since his epic <em><strong>NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff<\/strong><\/em> showdown with <strong>WALTER<\/strong>, <strong>Tyler Bate<\/strong> strutted down to ringside as the fans bombarded him with admiration.

The Big Strong Boi is far from finished with the brand, being interrupted by <strong>Jordan Devlin<\/strong> soon thereafter. The Irish Ace was quick to express his dissatisfaction with Tyler&#8217;s performance a few weeks ago, before claiming that the only capable of taking down The Ring General was him. Devlin was fast to retreat when Tyler came up the ramp after him, but it&#8217;s safe to say things are far from over between these two.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Athletic Showcase<\/strong><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We&#39;ve got some GREAT action happening! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NXTUK?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#NXTUK<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pg4E6pPlr3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/pg4E6pPlr3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NXT UK (@NXTUK) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NXTUK\/status\/1176936618407559168?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">September 25, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>After a while away from <em>NXT UK<\/em>, <strong>Ligero<\/strong> returned to action this week as he picked up a victory over <strong>Oliver Carter<\/strong> in the night&#8217;s opening encounter. This was a very different Ligero than what we&#8217;re used to however, with The Mexican Sensation using some different pieces of offence to put away Carter &#8211; one such example was hitting a slingshot stunner as opposed to his usual slingshot cutter. A superkick and C4L combination put Oliver down for the three count as Ligero marks a successful return to <em>NXT UK<\/em>, and what looks like the start of his journey towards the WWE United Kingdom Championship.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Spotlight On Her<\/strong><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LeadingLady?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#LeadingLady<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NXTUK?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@NXTUK<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NinaSamuels123?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@NinaSamuels123<\/a> is reminding EVERYONE just how vicious she can be. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NXTUK?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#NXTUK<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/qhdrf2fW3A\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/qhdrf2fW3A<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE (@WWE) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1176941760284479488?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">September 25, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>Nina Samuels<\/strong> believes that she&#8217;s the MVP of the women&#8217;s division within <em>NXT UK<\/em>, regardless of whether or not she&#8217;s the reigning Women&#8217;s Champion. She faced the debuting <strong>Dani Luna<\/strong> here in what was, surprisingly, a highly competitive match. It was a surprising fact because usually with these sorts of matches, it&#8217;s typically the main <em>NXT UK<\/em> talent laying a beating on what could be classed as enhancement talents. Not with Dani Luna though, the 20 year old clearly wanting to impress in her <em>NXT UK<\/em> debut. She was never winning obviously &#8211; Nina picked up the win following the Final Act &#8211; but it was nice to see a change from the norm. With matches like this, there&#8217;s a firm reason why Nina Samuels could very well be the greatest thing to come from the NXT UK women&#8217;s division.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What Else?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In addition to all this, current WWE United Kingdom Champion <strong>WALTER<\/strong> was shown at the UK Performance Center manhandling some of the less-experienced talents (including one <strong>Spike Trivet<\/strong>) before claiming they didn&#8217;t belong in the ring.
