An NXT UK Championship match is set to air on July 28. 

It was revealed on NXT UK this week that Wolfgang challenging Ilja Dragunov for the title will air in two weeks. 

Wolfgang cut a promo directed at the NXT UK Champion during Thursday’s show. 

“People need to remember who Wolfgang is, just how bad I can be in that ring,” he said. “Someone needs to take that title from you, why not Wolfy?”

NXT UK also revealed three matches set to air next week.

Sam Gradwell will face Trent Seven in singles action. This was set up in an angle from last week’s show.
