The majority of that card is really solid. Coffey going for the title again though?

The majority of that card is really solid. Coffey going for the title again though? Like, I'm sure it'll be a hell of a hoss fight, but with all due respect to him, he screams filler challenger. Especially since they've booked Undisputed Era v Imperium for Worlds Collide... They'll want all the men's belts on that match, I'd assume. That said, I'm not too sure who really would be the next likely champion after WALTER. I want to say Dragunov, but he just needs to get on that big winning run first. Devlin's another possibility. I'm not sure they'll go back to Bate... I reckon he'll relocate to the US by the end of the year.

Don't know if they'll do that Mania weekend or not. Bate might relocate with Toni coming with him. And if Toni does leave NXT UK for here in the states, just please have her last match be a one on one match with Piper. Really enjoy those 2 together.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised to see Toni take the pin and then bounce for the US after the match.

As someone that starts work at 5am every morning that start time is very helpful.

There's a Prime Target special on during NXT UK's normal time slot tonight telling the story of NXT UK and building up Takeover.

Main talking points from the build to each match:
*Coffey felt embarrassed by WALTER at last year's Blackpool show and wants revenge, WALTER feels Coffey isn't ready for him *KLR is the master puppeteer ruining Piper and Toni's friendship, Toni doesn't trust anyone now, Piper is fighting for the memory of Lionheart *Grizzled Young Vets and Imperium don't know why they're in a ladder match, Gallus will defend with everything they have, Flash and Mandrews feel this is their element *Regal calls Bate/Devlin the match of the year, Devlin says he's better than Bate, Bate is telling Devlin to prove it *They didn't talk to Eddie Dennis, no-one knows why he's going after Trent Seven

The women's triple threat is really interesting because I can see any of the three winning.

I feel pretty confident in predicting that at the very least the Four Team Ladder Match and Bate/Devlin will end up in my top 15 or so favorite matches of 2020 when it鈥檚 all said and done.

Once again the people who put together these Prime Target shows absolutely killed it. The Blackpool one is incredible.
I urge anyone planning to watch Takeover Blackpool and especially those that are on the fence about watching it to check it out.
