Remember when NXT UK Champion WALTER had his title belt stolen back in 2019? Well, that one and the same championship belt has now been found and returned to WWE.

A TikTok user named VNDSChicago has posted several videos online detailing this whole situation.

From what can be made out, the user - whose real name seems to be Daniel - found the lost NXT UK Championship for sale, purchased it, then decided to ship the gold off to WWE HQ. In return, he was sent a replica NXT UK Title signed by WALTER, Triple H and Shawn Michaels.

Many fans have seemingly questioned why VNDSChicago wouldn't keep this most rare of prizes as his own. In response to that, he's compared it to how thankful he was when someone returned his glasses after they were lost in Puerto Rico - and the return of the lost NXT UK Championship was seen as the perfect way to 'pay it forward'.

For some context, WALTER had his rental car broken into while he was in Chicago in December 2019 for EVOLVE 142. In amongst the items stolen, were the Ring General's passport and the NXT UK Title.
