We are back and Kenny Williams faces Tiger Turan next week. Xia Brookside and Eliza Alexander will face Sarray and Meiko Satomura.

Trent Seven makes his way to the ring.

Trent thanks everyone for the warm welcome. He says he heard a chant of ‘Why Trent Why?’. That is a good question. Trent says he will use visual aids to explain why. We see the low blow from two weeks ago and Trent says it is beautiful. It is the best low blow ever. Look at the positioning. It is a work of art. More importantly, it represents a turning point. That is the most important moment in British sports.

It is the moment that Trent Seven saved the industry. Trent says you all know that is the truth. This place was dead. This studio was a ghost town. Now, look at you all. The largest crowd in NXT UK BT Sports Studios history because Trent Seven is on top. This is where he likes to be. Right at the top, right in the middle. The center of attention.

Trent says that Tyler Bate is done, as he responds to the crowd.

They toured the world, sold out every arena. Promoters begged us to be on their shows. You needed us. It is not me who changed, it was Tyler who changed. I never lost my killer instinct to win. Tyler lost his nerve and will to win. It is namaste. It is all that rubbish sitting in the field, hugging a tree. Tyler is not going to come back to fight him.

Tyler lost his fighting spirit. Tyler Bate is the little weak boy. I am NXT UK. I am this brand. I am NXT. I am British Strong Style. I am Moustache Mountain.

Trent leaves the ring and he has some words for a fan in the front row.

The fan jumps over the ringside barrier and security holds him back.

Trent with a kick to the ding ding area.

Officials come out to guide Trent to the back.
