Tyler Bate’s impressive, cerebral style was on full-display against Cameron Grimes. The first WWE United Kingdom Champion’s defense was so dizzying that Grimes didn’t know whether to continue his attack or wind his watch. Grimes’ size helped him to slow down Bate’s attack and to gain control of the match.
Bate battled back and even seemed poised for a win after connecting with a tope suicida, but his eyes caught Killian Dain waiting at ringside. That momentary distraction allowed Grimes to hit Bate with the Cave-in for the win.
The Beast of Belfast then feasted, crushing Bate into the steel steps in a clear message to Pete Dunne.
