WWE COO Triple H shows up. He talks about how WWE came to Blackpool, England last year to search for the best the UK had to offer and how they were blown away. He says that night changed what it meant to be a professional wrestler in the United Kingdom, and since that time, some of the talent from last year's competition have turned themselves into worldwide names. Triple H says the first two rounds have made it clear that they are only scratching the surface in the UK and that the WWE is going to give the United Kingdom more. To talk about the "more," he brings out UK wrestling legend and the new General Manager of the UK Division, Johnny Saint. Saint says many a year has passed since he last wrestled in the Royal Albert Hall, and tonight, he announces the official commencement of the NXT UK brand. A NXT UK logo is then seen on the TitanTron. Triple H says NXT UK, will show not only the best male wrestlers in the UK, but also the best women and the best tag teams. The first event will start in Cambridge, England at the Cambridge Corn Exchange on July 28th and July 29th. August 25th and 26th will see action at the Insomnia Gaming Festival in Birmingham, England. October 13th and 14th will see action at the Plymouth Pavilions in Plymouth, England. November 24th and 25th will see action at the Liverpool Olympia in Liverpool, England. Tickets go on sale for all events on June 29th. He then says there is one question left to ask: "Are you ready?"
