6 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE NXT UK (18 March)

3. It's Happening

WALTER vs. Rampage Brown. They're actually doing it. Brown is challenging for the NXT UK Championship at NXT UK Prelude in three weeks' time.

The Imperium leader was too busy listing off a who's who of challengers who have tried and failed to take the championship out of his grasp, and demanded that management scour the world to find someone who has the tiniest chance of taking the title away from 'The Ring General'.

That's when Rampage emerged, made the challenge for a title bout between himself and 'The Ring General', and shoved the champion to the mat with ease. Rampage Brown has a legitimate chance of ending WALTER's record-setting reign on 8 April; not many others have been able to say that.

Officially confirmed later on in the show, the match will undoubtedly be a show-stealer. Two hosses knocking lumps out of each other? It's the sort of wrestling you want to see from Rampage Brown and WALTER. During WrestleMania week of all places, time could easily be up for WALTER. He's already returned to NXT to start a new story arc with Tommaso Ciampa that presumably won't involve the championship.

There's never been a better opportunity to take the title off him, especially when the challenger is so deserving of such an accolade.
