WWE NXT UK Champion WALTER is set to defend his title against NXT UK Heritage Cup Champion A-Kid in early 2021.
This week’s NXT UK episode on the WWE Network saw A-Kid come to the ring and talk about how he wants to prove that he is the best, and belongs with the best. He then issued a challenge to WALTER. WALTER then came out for his first appearance since retaining the title over Ilja Dragunov in late October. WALTER talked down to A-Kid a bit, then taught him how to wipe his feet on the ring apron before entering. He gave A-Kid some praise for his performance in the Heritage Cup tournament, but said he’s nothing special, and warned that his fairy tale will end when he steps in the ring with him. The match was later confirmed for next year.

Isla Dawn vs. Kay Lee Ray
We’re opening with a women’s match for a change, as Isla Dawn returned following her win last week. Unsurprisingly, Kay Lee Ray’s 2-0 over Isla in prior TV matches…
We open with a lock-up, as Kay Lee worked over Isla’s left arm and wrist. It turns into a hammerlock, but Dawn counters out with a wristlock, before an Irish whip was reversed, with Dawn landing a knee to the gut. A kick and a double knee drop squashes Ray for a two-count, but Kay Lee’s right back up with a clothesline and some stomps.
