NXT UK HERITAGE CUP DETAILS

By Mike Johnson on 2020-09-10 18:01:00

As Richard Trionfo covered in his NXT UK TV report, WWE officially announced the Heritage Cup Tournament for forthcoming episodes of NXT UK TV.

The eight man tournament will feature A-Kid, Joseph Conners, Noam Dar, Dave Mastiff, Trent Seven, Flash Morgan Webster, Alexander Wolfe and a final competitor to be revealed.

The tournament matches will all be best of three falls under traditional British rounds.  There will be six rounds per match with each round consisting of three minutes with a 20 second break in between the rounds.

When a competitor wins a fall, that round is over.  When a competitor scores two falls, the match is over.

The match will end if there is KO or disqualification.

Should the match go six rounds without a winner, the person who has scored the most falls at the time of the draw will advance.

NXT UK will return to original in-ring action next Thursday 9/17, featuring Amir Jordan and Kenny Williams vs. Gallus and more details on the Heritage Cup tournament and more. 

The 9/24 episode will feature Kay Lee Ray defending the NXT UK Women’s Championship against Piper Niven.
