"Bomber" Dave Mastiff beats "The Primate" Jay Melrose.

We see a vignette for Xia Brookside, who will be in action next week.

Zack Gibson and James Drake show up. Gibson says that for a very long time, he and Drake said "soon" were focused on one goal while everyone was focused on everything else. He says that they were focused on their goal when they stole the show at NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool, and they are now the first-ever NXT UK Tag Team Champions. Gibson says the fans will not take the moment away from them, and that they will call them "grizzled young veterans" and tag team champions. He says that the tag team titles will soon be the most important in NXT UK. Assistant to the NXT UK General Manager Sid Scala shows up, and tells them they will not be short of challengers. At Worlds Collide, NXT UK will soon show why they are the hottest up-and-coming brand in sports entertainment. He announces that General Manager Johnny Saint has found the perfect team to be their first challengers: Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch. The match will take place soon on NXT UK. Scala asks Gibson and Drake not to let the brand down.

Next week: Ligero vs. Mark Andrews!

Generation NXT UK - NXT UK recap for December 26, 2018 - Episode Two

Zack Gibson and James Drake beat "Wild Boar' Mike Hitchman and the debuting "Primate" Jay Melrose. After the match, Gibson says that the NXT UK Tag Team Championships are right around the corner and that he knows a thing or two about winning tournaments. He says Liverpool has conquered Europe and that they will not will stop. Gibson says he loves his city, but he absolutely hates the people of Liverpool and says the scouse fans turned their backs on him when he found success around the world. He says that nobody in the crowd can take his success from him or the success he and James Drake about to achieve, and that he and Drake are the best tag team in the world and soon to be NXT UK Tag Team Champions.

Backstage, Tyler Bate says the road to NXT UK Takeover has begun, but before he and Trent Seven get there, they have Gallus to contend with. Trent says they've come to blows, but this time, it's two-on-two with the winners going to TakeOver. Both of them have been there before and won, and they plan on becoming crowned the NXT UK Tag Team Champions.

Next week: Moustache Mountain (Tyler Bate and Trent Seven) vs. Gallus (Mark Coffey and Wolfgang) in the semi-finals of the NXT UK Tag Team Championship Tournament!

"Bomber" Dave Mastiff vs. Josh Morrell ends before it begins when Morrell is attacked by Eddie Dennis before the match. Dennis and Mastiff have to be kept separated by referees, who quickly move into place.

Joseph Connors talks about the diversity of the NXT UK landscape, calling them "shiny new toys" and that new toys have a shelf life. Two years ago, he was one of these "new toys," but he is battered, scratched and discarded. If he cannot be a "new toy," then he plans to batter and scratch everyone else as badly as he is.

Marcel Barthel beats Mark Andrews in his NXT UK debut with the assist from Fabian Aichner. After the match, Marcel Barthel and Fabian Aichner shake hands as if to imply an alliance.
