Who can stop Imperium? That’s the question echoing through every corner of the NXT UK Universe. The answer just might be first-ever WWE United Kingdom Tyler Bate when he battles WALTER for his illustrations title and the very future of the rising brand.

The deadly faction combines the forces of WALTER, Fabian Aichner, Marcel Barthel and Alexander Wolfe, and the quartet is dead-set on reigning over NXT UK and purifying the very mat that they consider sacred.

In the course of that quest, the dominant foursome took advantage of Pete Dunne’s absence and unleashed a brutal assault on Moustache Mountain that put Tyler Bate out of action.

One week after WALTER decimated Trent Seven with six consecutive powerbombs, Tyler Bate suddenly exploded back onto the scene and attacked The Ring General and his cohorts. General Manager Johnny Saint and Assistant to the General Manager Sid Scala determined on the spot to make a match between WALTER and Bate for NKT UK’s top prize at TakeOver: Cardiff!
