Ilja Dragunov made his entrance to kick off this week’s NXT UK. Noam Dar entered the BT Sports Studio…
1. Ilja Dragunov vs. Noam Dar. Dar struck first, with a kick to Dragunov and a takedown. The “Moscow Madman” took Dar to the mat and began to unleash his forearms. He stopped himself before inflicting too much punishment.
Dar looked to provoke Dragunov with slaps to the face. An awkward landing for Dragunov allowed Dar to send him out the ring. Dar channeled William Regal with a snapmare into the ropes. Dar stayed in control of the bout with kicks and submissions. Dragunov attempted a leglock but Dar kept kicking him in the face. The Russian finally came back into the match with two German suplexes. He rained down elbows on Dar.

Welcome back to the BT Sport Studios!
We get a couple of really good matches in this one, a Pretty Deadly tag title defense, and the emergence of my favorite to challenge WALTER for the NXT UK Championship.
Ilja Dragunov versus Noam Dar
This came about out of Dragunov’s appearance on Supernova Session two weeks ago. We get a cagey start to this one as both men start with exchanges of lockups and takedowns classic wrestling stuff. The action picks up as Dar tries to play some mind games after dodging Ilja’s lariat. Don’t wake the bear Dar!

Preview For Todayâs WWE NXT UK );
Never shy about voicing his opinion, Sam Gradwell has spent the last several weeks repeatedly voicing his displeasure that Trent Seven is considered a âfounding father of NXT UK.â Gradwell claims that he is more deserving of such a title.
After a few arguments and physical altercations in recent weeks, the two veterans are set to collide in what should be a hard-hitting melee. );
Seven has reinvigorated his career by cutting significant weight to challenge for the NXT Cruiserweight Title and even reformed Moustache Mountain with Tyler Bate to score a win against Noam Dar and Sha Samuels. Gradwell doesnât seem impressed, however, as he has taken every opportunity to deride The Artful Dodger.
