Can WALTER continue his record-setting reign as NXT United Kingdom Champion against The Blackheart?
The Ring General will put his title on the line against Tommaso Ciampa on Night 1 of NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver.
WALTER's indomitable stable, Imperium, courted Ciampa and tag team partner Timothy Thatcher to join their ranks. The Blackheart emphatically declined, and Thatcher, who shares a storied history with Imperium, seemingly disappeared with Ciampa holding Imperium responsible for his absence.
Ruthlessly attacking Ciampa in his stunning return to the black-and-gold brand for the first time in more than a year, WALTER made a vicious example. But The Blackheart came back for more the following week, challenging The Ring General.
When Ciampa smacked WALTER after he denied the challenge, The Blackheart was once again subjected to a savage beatdown by Imperium.
But when WALTER and Ciampa face off one on one, might it be a different story? As a former NXT Champion who only relinquished the title due to injury, Ciampa knows what it takes to win gold.
Will he add a new accolade at NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver? Or will WALTER continue to dominate?
