WALTER & Rampage Brown Segment
WALTER: I’m standing here in front of you as the longest reigning NXT UK Champion in history. Ever since I arrived, I dominated this brand. I went through everybody in front of me. British Strong Style, Joe Coffey, Dave Mastiff, Ilja Dragunov, the list goes on and on. But I’m still here for competition. So I’m asking you directly now, Johnny Saint, look the world over and find the next challenger for me. Find someone that is worth it to step in this ring with me.
Rampage Brown: Mr. Saint doesn’t need to search the world, looking for an opponent. He just needs to look in his own backyard. And you’re a dominant champion, but a champion that has never faced Rampage Brown. So when you’re ready, you just let me know.
Brown shoves WALTER into the canvas.
