New WWE NXT UK Heritage Cup Champion Crowned On NXT UK

Submitted by David Draiman on

The latest episode of NXT UK saw Tyler Bate beat A-Kid to become the new NXT UK Heritage Cup Champion in a match that was contested under British Rounds Rules as all Heritage Cup matches are. Bate is the second WWE NXT UK Heritage Cup Champion after A-Kid, who became the inaugural WWE NXT UK Heritage Cup Champion on the November 26th, 2020 episode by defeating Trent Seven in the tournament finals.

This match between Tyler Bate and A-Kid was their rubber match as their first match took place on the January 17th, 2020 episode of NXT UK, which saw Tyler win the match. The second match then took place on the December 10th, 2020 episode, which saw A-Kid retain his NXT UK Heritage Cup over Bate.

Tyler Bate would then defeat Noam Dar at the NXT UK Prelude special during WrestleMania 37 Weekend to become the new #1 Contender to the NXT UK Heritage Cup Championship.
