In memory of Harley Race, 1943 - 2019.

Noam Dar beats Ashton Smith. After the match, Radzi interviews Noam Dar in the ring. Noam says he could have went anywhere, but the only reason he is on NXT UK is because of the huge contract with big benefits they offered him. One of those benefits allows him to be in all the big events, especially NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff, where he will be in the ring.

We see footage from earlier this week from the UK Performance Center. Tyler Bate says that Trent Seven may not be medically cleared, but he is, and he will not let Walter disrespect the United Kingdom Championship anymore. He plans on being the first-ever two-time United Kingdom Champion.

Grizzled Young Veterans (Zack Gibson and James Drake) show up. Gibson says he has heard that Gallus (Mark Coffey and Wolfgang) want a tag team title shot and have an impressive winning streak, but while Gallus have been beating lesser wrestlers, they have been beating the best in the world. Suddenly, Mark Coffey and Wolfgang show up, and Coffey says they are taking their match at NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff. Suddenly, Mark Andrews and "Flash" Morgan Webster show up. Mark Andrews admits both teams are good, but tells them that neither of them are taking over Cardiff without taking them on. Gibson does not think highly of them, and says Gallus have won matches instead of spending time in the doctor's office. Mark Coffey tells them to pipe down, but "Flash" Morgan tells both teams that he and Andrews can beat the both of them. Drake tells everyone to calm down, and Gibson says they did not come here for a fight. Gibson says he and Drake have punched their ticket and that General Manager Johnny Saint makes the matches. He goes on to say that he, Drake and Gallus got their spot in their hometown, and if Andrews and Webster want their spot, they'll have to prove themselves; until then, the NXT UK tag titles will stay "grizzled."

We see a video package where NXT UK Superstars talk about their preparations for NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff.

Ohno states that there is nobody more passionate about British wrestling than him, and that he is the best British wrestler in the world.
