Kevin Owens (C) vs Seth Rollins
(After Survivor Series, Seth Rollins decides to stop by Stamford, Conneticuit's Titan Towers to completely wrecks Triple H's office. Stephanie McMahon tries to fire Rollins for this, but Mick Foley and several members of the Raw roster threaten to walk out on the company if he is let go. So, an irate Steph makes this match, so KO can bludgeon Seth Rollins. Steph also makes it that if Rollins loses, he's barred from challenging for the world title, as long as Kevin Owens is champion.)

Pete Dunne then viciously attacks Sam Gradwell with a forearm and beats him down until Regal angrily stops The Bruiserweight. A smirking Dunne is warned "you better not mess this up" by an incensed Regal. Dunne then adds insult to injury by further attacking Gradwell, throwing the Blackpool native off the stage and then hitting an X-Plex on the ramp. Night One ends with The Bruiserweight standing atop the ramp and performing his trademark pose, eying up the United Kingdom Championship as the crowd showers him with boos.)
Night Two

(A brief 5 minute sprint sees Bate win with a Tyler Driver 97. Pete Dunne then runs out and attacks Bate, sending him shoulder first into the ring post. William Regal then appears and angrily forces Dunne to the back.)
Tommy End vs Neville
(The self-proclaimed 'King of the Cruiserweights' makes a surprise and begins complaining about not being in the tournament, that he should be the United Kingdom Champion by default, and that if he was in the tournament, he would win it. Neville says he’s the greatest export from the UK and there is no one in the back that can stop him. The future Aleister Black answers, which leads to this impromptu match.)
Finn Balor segment
(The Blackpool crowd gets another surprise as Finn Balor (still recovering from his torn labrum) makes an appearance. Bálor puts over the tournament and thanks the crowd for making this tournament happen.)

Following two Rolling Koppo Kick’s, Bate hits a Tyler Driver 97 to make history and become the first ever United Kingdom Champion.)
