NXT TakeOver Chicago: Every Match Ranked From Worst To Best
1. UK Title: Tyler Bate (c) Vs. Pete Dunne
Result: Dunne struck the Bitter End to win the UK Title (15:27).
Rating: It was a damn good call to have JR pulling commentary duty here, because this was an absolute firecracker of a match that totally deserved his talents. Almost everything about the match was perfect: the pacing, the selling, the ring psychology, and the sheer brutal desperation of both men to win.
There were so many highlights here (the release suplex on the apron, the airplane spin, all the kickouts, the "UK" chants), and the pair managed to somehow improve upon their already terrific tournament final match.
It's ludicrous to consider the absolute clinics these two could put on in the future (they're only 20 and 23 respectively). This is clearly Match of the Year material, and surely the best match WWE has put out all year. 9/10
