Full Results From Saturday NXT UK Taping, Including New #1 Contender Crowned *SPOILERS*

The UK marches on. We’re at the start of a new season for WWE. Things are starting all over again and that means a lot of changes are taking place. As it turns out, that’s the case with the smaller promotions under the WWE umbrella as well, meaning they need to have some more television shows taped. That was the case again, and for the second night in a row.

NXT UK held its second consecutive day of television tapings in Glasgow, Scotland on Saturday. These shows will air at some unknown point in the next few weeks, continuing over from the previous night’s taping which featured a series of matches designed to crown a new #1 contender to the United Kingdom Title. Here are the results, courtesy of Wrestlinginc.com:

* Kenny Williams defeated BT Gunn (Dark Match)

* WWE UK Champion WALTER, Marcel Barthel, and Fabian Aichner form the stable, Imperium (means “absolute power”). Pete Dunne, Tyler Bate, and Trent Seven get into a brawl with the group and stand tall at the end of the segment/

You never know when you might see something like this. Check out the showdown that started the big story:

Opinion: I’m starting to get into this promotion more and more as it’s the kind of place that makes for good television. Hopefully these stories get even better as the talent roster is starting to look more interesting. With the right kind of storytelling and execution, we could be in for a lot of fun around here. Having a new #1 contender will help as well as elevating people is a good idea.
