If it ends up anywhere near half as good as the regular NXT Takeovers are, we'll be doing all right.

And yes, the first Takeover UK Women's Title match is between two Australians, but at least Toni mentioned in her promo this week that she's lived here for five years, and does have a British passport.

The official themes for the show are "Doomsday" by Architects, and "Fight Fire With Fire" by The Prodigy featuring Ho99o9.

I honestly hope they don’t put the belt on Toni yet, I think there’s money in the chase. Have her win around Mania or SummerSlam

I expect WALTER to be in the crowd for our requisite "new NXT signee watching Takeover" moment.

Have her win around Mania or SummerSlam Problem is there aren't any real credible babyface challengers other than Toni, which is why Deonna Purrazzo was brought in. There's a few on the heel side Toni can go with, while they can beef up the face side underneath. |

Dunne vs. Joe Coffey for the UK Title is set, and Moustache Mountain will be challenging for the Tag Titles.

Updated the OP with the new matches, with one more double header of the TV show to go next week.

I don't know the taping results but I'd guess it's gonna be GYV in the tag tournament final.

At least the tag division is in a better state than it was for the first special for regular NXT, when they had to bring in Too Cool as ringers.

To give you an idea of how weak the depth is in the NXT: UK women's division is in terms of credibility. Dakota Kai was basically their #2 babyface, and she was only their temporarily until she was brought back to feud with Shayna & co. alongside Kairi & Io in the main NXT roster. |

I really wish the UK Chanpionship title match was Dunne/Devlin.
The Coffeey bros just bore me as heels, let alone top heels. Same applies to Zack Gibson, too.

I haven't been watching NXT UK, but I'm so into watching this show. I'm sure this show is going to be amazing.

The pre-show airs at 6:30pm UK/1:30pm EST, and the main show starts at 7pm/2pm. Following Takeover is a new documentary about the voice of Work Rate Wednesday, Nigel McGuinness.

I can't wait for Dunne/Coffey. I wonder if we are finally getting a title change, Coffey has been built as a big star since the very first episode of NXT UK, and has really been the main star of the show's first 20 plus episodes with Dunne appearing so sporadically.
