You were sat upright in bed with a cup of tea watching history being made on the WWE Network.

Trent says that you were the winner of the 2018 WWE UK Tournament, but you couldn’t get the job done on night two. However, you made everyone in Royal Albert Hall take off their shoes. Trent makes it into the ring. He says that Zack mentioned a lot of talented men and wrestlers earlier, but you failed to mention him. Trent suggests that they have a match right now.

Zack leaves the ring before anything physical can happen.
