Following his victory, Bate was attacked by Pete Dunne, just 24 hours after doing the same to Sam Gradwell. NXT general manager William Regal confronted the English star immediately after the assault – Regal has been extremely outspoken about Dunne’s action’s thus far in the tournament, and things have built to a fever pitch as he prepares for his championship match in the main event of today’s show.
