#3. Ilja Dragunov steals the show once again

Ilja Dragunov arrived on the scene back in 2019 and it's easy to see why the whole world is talking about the NXT UK star. He already stole the show in a match against Cesaro back at TakeOver: Cardiff back in August 2019 and last night in Coventry he proved that he can do it on a cold Friday night as well.

Dragunov may have answered Cesaro's open challenge and lost last year in Wales, but last night he and A-Kid managed to steal the show despite Finn Balor being the man that the WWE Universe paid to see.

The Russian star was the next man to step up to A-Kid after he fought off the likes of Brian Kendrick and Kassius Ohno. Kid seems to be looking to make a name for himself on the brand, but even though he was unable to defeat Dragunov, the two men proved that they have perfect in-ring chemistry.

This match won't be screened for another week or so, but it's definitely worth tuning in for the episode if only to see these two youngsters blow the entire roster out of the water.
