The three men agreed that they are the toughest competitors in NXT UK during a chat last week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Whoever comes out on top will be able to say with conviction that they deserve the next shot at <strong>WALTER<\/strong>\u2019S United Kingdom Championship. Each man has tried and failed to prise the title from the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2021\/02\/19\/walter-longest-reigning-wwe-nxt-united-kingdom-champion\/\" target=\"_self\">dominant Austrian.\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Dragunov has seemingly overcome the mental issues that have plagued him since his defeat to WALTER. Coffey feels he needs to prove to himself and Brown and Dragunov that he is still \u2018on top\u2019. Brown really shook up the NXT UK roster with his arrival and he will want to complete his descent with a <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2021\/04\/08\/nxt-uk-prelude-results-and-analysis-4-8-21\/\" target=\"_self\">victory over WALTER at the second time of asking.\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It is hearsay that the huge triple threat is likely to decide the No.1 contender at WALTER but what we do know is it is guaranteed to be an extremely physical affair.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Has <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/UNBESIEGBAR_ZAR?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@UNBESIEGBAR_ZAR<\/a> met his match?<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\/JF9fMVTmQF\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/JF9fMVTmQF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NXT UK (@NXTUK) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NXTUK\/status\/1405609045411631104?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">June 17, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Who Does Teoman Have His Eye On?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Teoman takes on Oliver Carter this week having recently defeated his tag team partner Ashton Smith.

For Teoman, family is the most important thing in the world and he has taken displeasure to Smith and Carter\u2019s non-family bond.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">But the \u2018Babo\u2019 could be in danger of overlooking Carter. Teoman\u2019s eye flashed on the TitanTron after Nathan Frazer and Rohan Raja\u2019s match, last week, signalling that he was watching one or both of them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This could be both men\u2019s best singles match on the NXT UK roster as they will be familiar with each other from their time in Westside Xtreme Wrestling (wXw).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud835\udc69\ud835\udc96\ud835\udc95 \ud835\udc70 \ud835\udc8c\ud835\udc8f\ud835\udc90\ud835\udc98 \ud835\udc70&#39;\ud835\udc8e \ud835\udc88\ud835\udc90\ud835\udc8f\ud835\udc8f\ud835\udc82 \ud835\udc84\ud835\udc89\ud835\udc82\ud835\udc8f\ud835\udc88\ud835\udc86 \ud835\udc95\ud835\udc89\ud835\udc82\ud835\udc95 \ud835\udc95\ud835\udc96\ud835\udc8f\ud835\udc86<br \/>\ud835\udc7e\ud835\udc89\ud835\udc86\ud835\udc8f \ud835\udc70&#39;\ud835\udc8e \ud835\udc83\ud835\udc82\ud835\udc84\ud835\udc8c \ud835\udc90\ud835\udc8f \ud835\udc95\ud835\udc90\ud835\udc91, \ud835\udc83\ud835\udc82\ud835\udc84\ud835\udc8c \ud835\udc90\ud835\udc8f \ud835\udc95\ud835\udc90\ud835\udc91 \ud835\udc8a\ud835\udc8f \ud835\udc71\ud835\udc96\ud835\udc8f\ud835\udc86<\/p>\n<p>@TeomanWWE has his \ud83d\udc41 on @AshtonSmith_WWE &amp; @olivercarterGH&#8230;<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\/CM8Zv7pUha\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/CM8Zv7pUha<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NXT UK (@NXTUK) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NXTUK\/status\/1403381947989168130?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">June 11, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Ball Is In Mark Coffey\u2019s Court Now<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"><strong>Gallus<\/strong> stable mates <strong>Mark Coffey<\/strong> and <strong>Wolfgang<\/strong> are going head-to-head in challenges to try and work out who the best is.

This sent \u2018The East End Butcher running to demand a match from Sid Scala. Coffey turned to the camera and said a match with Samuels would be his opportunity to draw level with Wolfgang.
