WWE is trying to elevate their United Kingdom (UK) division. Consequently, we have a similar bunch of talents on this roster like the NXT division, from the get-go. But, they don’t have their own show.

Moreover, this is the reason we get to see the less of them. But, the company is trying to give these incredible talents a major push.

A tournament exclusively for the UK roster superstars will take place in the month of June. After the Money in the Bank PPV event, some of the NXT superstars will fly down to the UK to take part in this huge event.

So, the stars of the European countries, as well as the developmental territory of the WWE, will join forces to make this event a success.

The company is pushing this event to be a mega sell-out. They confirmed none other than Shawn Michaels will be in the house on that particular night.

The WWE Hall of Famer will grace the show on June 18th. Triple H, the originator of NXT and this UK tournament will also be present alongside him.

The infamous Royal Albert Hall is the host of this fan-feast. There’s no update whether the show will air on the WWE Network or not.

We witnessed the inaugural edition of the UK tournament on the same platform in 2017.

WWE has come with a packed card, this year, too. The winner of this tournament will challenge the current United Kingdom Champion, Pete Dunne.

The BruiserWeight, himself will be in action against the Undisputed Era of NXT. He will team up with Tyler Bate and Trent Seven to conquer the heel trio of the NXT roster.

Also, WWE.com confirmed there will several title matches on June 19th on the same venue,

“The event on Tuesday, June 19, will feature three NXT championship matches, including an NXT North American Championship Match, an NXT Women’s Championship Match and an NXT Tag Team Championship Match.”

Shayna Baszler will get her next opponent for the NXT Women’s Championship, following this show.

Toni Storm vs Isla Dawn vs Jinny vs Killer Kelly in a Fatal 4-Way is now official for this special event. The winner of this contest will get a wildcard ticket to compete in a title match against the champion in future.
