The WWE United Kingdom Championship Tournament was a hit when it aired on the WWE Network in early 2017. It looked as if we might be seeing WWE establish a weekly show for the division. Now that we are almost at the end of 2017, it still hasn’t happened yet.
Pete Dunne was recently interviewed by the Mirror to promote some upcoming WWE events that he will be a part of. He spoke about the future of the WWE UK show.
Dunne says that he hasn’t heard anything but is still hopeful that it will happen:
“I personally haven’t heard anything, but WWE haven’t exactly been quiet about the fact that their aim is to do a full time UK brand show. They have been quite open about that from the start. It’s still something I’m holding out for, that’s the ideal situation for me right now. A lot of people ask do I want to do NXT, or do I want to do main roster. I would love to be able to start something new and build a UK brand that we can all be proud of. I’m so proud of the tournament that we did and the tapings that we did in Norwich and the small part of NXT shows that we’ve had the chance to do stuff with. To be able to build something from the ground up, that would be really exciting to me. So fingers crossed. As of right now, I haven’t heard anything more that anyone else, but I’m still hopeful”
Here are some of the latest rumors on the UK show for those interested.
