Walter vs A-Kid for the NXT UK Championship
The main event of the night saw the NXT UK Championship being on the line for the first time in 2021. A-Kid stepped up for the biggest match of his career as he went one-on-one with the almighty Walter.
Walter started the match preying on his much smaller opponent while A-Kid dodged and evaded his attacks. Walter caught A-Kid and smothered him in the corner. A-Kid escaped and slipped in a kick to the chest. Walker shook it off and continued to stalk him.

A-Kid began working on the leg, kicking at the champion's huge calves and thighs with every chance he got. Walter cornered A-Kid once more, but the current NXT UK Heritage Cup holder countered it into an over the rope armbar.
A flurry of kicks to Walter's leg forced the Austrian giant to go down on the mat. However, A-Kid got too cocky, and after a dropkick, his chest was caved in by two monstrous chops from the NXT UK Champion. A Boston Crab followed by a big boot and another huge chop put Walter back in control of the match.
NXT UK's Ring General hit A-Kid with three massive blows, but the latter caught the fourth and followed up with a missile dropkick. A flurry of stiff kicks from A-Kid was halted by a huge swat by Walter. The Austrian followed it up with a diving dropkick and a gigantic powerbomb, which A-Kid somehow kicked out off. Another deafening chop was met with a slap across the face and an armbar that Walter broke out of by driving his opponent into the ring apron.
A-Kid continued to show his grit and determination, but Walter hit a succession of sickening short-arm clotheslines to put away the gutsy challenger and retain his NXT UK Championship.
Result: Walter successfully defended the NXT UK Championship against A-Kid
