NXT United Kingdom Women’s Championship
(C) Toni Storm Vs. Kay Lee Ray
The match gets underway and Ray immediately leaves the ring and taunts Storm. She gets back in the ring and slaps Toni, who unloads on her. Storm drops Ray with a big elbow, followed by kicks to the head. Ray fires back and attacks Storm in the corner, before hitting a facebuster suplex for a two count.
Ray slaps the head of Storm over and over, with Toni starting to cry. Storm then fires back with slaps of her own. Toni looks for Storm Zero but Ray escapes. Ray looks for a Gory Bomb but Storm reverses with a sunset driver for a near-fall. Storm hits Storm Zero but Ray kicks out. Storm can’t believe it.
Ray connects with a Gory Bomb but Storm kicks out. Ray gets mad and puts Storm on the top rope. Toni fights back and wants to hit Storm Zero from the top rope but Ray fights her off. Storm manages to get down and hits Ray with a release German suplex from the middle rope. Ray rolls from the ring and Storm hits a suicide dive, before getting her back inside, where Ray takes her out with a knee.
With Storm knocked from the ring, then goes up top and hits a dumb-as-hell dive where she almost spiked herself and almost broke Storm’s leg. Back inside the ring, Ray hits Storm with a Gory Bomb into the ropes. She follows that up with a regular Gory Bomb for the win.
Winner and New NXT UK Women’s Champion: Kay Lee RAY
What a terrifically dull match. It was short and it was poor by almost every account. Compare that to the barn-burner between Storm and Rhea Rhipley from the last TakeOver. The fans were silent at the finish. Ray poses with her title, while Toni sits on the outside, sobbing – just what you’d want your babyface Champion to do.
