#1 Pete Dunne retains the NXT UK Championship against Joe Coffey

Can this potentially be the scene at NXT Takeover UK: Brooklyn?

Joe Coffey has been gaining a large amount of momentum over the past few months. Ever since forming a tag team with Mark Coffey at the NXT UK Championship Tournament earlier in June 2018, Joe Coffey has defeated several opponents including Ligero, Travis Banks, Trent Seven, and Mark Andrews, and has also pinned Tyler Bate in six-man Tag Team action when Gallus defeated British Strong Style in the main event of the latest episode of NXT UK.

Because Joe Coffey has so much momentum, it seems likely that he will become the new NXT UK Champion. However, it would make more sense for Pete Dunne to continue his reign. He has been so great as champion and there is a better NXT UK Championship title feud than that. Pete Dunne should arguably face off with Eddie Dennis because the two superstars actually have a history. Therefore, Pete Dunne will retain the United Kingdom Championship.
