Before the bell even rang for the NXT UK main event, Sam Gradwell lunged at Ilja Dragunov with a series of stomps. The action between the two men was fast-paced from the get-go.

Gradwell grabbed a steel chair to attack his opponent. However, this was quickly thwarted by Dragunov, who threw the chair away before dragging Gradwell back into the ring.

As Gradwell went under the ring for weapons, Dragunov stopped him each time. As Ilja climbed to the top rope, Sam moved to another corner. Unbesiegbar executed a Coast-to-Coast leap with relative ease.

Gradwell then grabbed the NXT UK announcer's bell and hit Dragunov with it. Sam began to attack his opponent with a cable.

Gladwell then suplexed Dragunov onto a steel chair, leaving welts across his back. He then exposed the turnbuckles on the ring, which he tried to shove Dragunov into. However, Ilja propelled himself back with his foot and escaped from the predictament.
