WWE has announced that Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels will be appearing as part of the upcoming United Kingdom Championship Tournament shows taking place in June.
HBK will be appearing on June 18th alongside head of NXT Triple H. The reasoning for his appearance has not yet been confirmed but rumors have been circulating linking Michaels to the NXT General Manager role…William Regal has not been seen on NXT television since WrestleMania.
The historic Royal Albert Hall will be hosting the two nights of action on June 18th and 19th. The United Kingdom Championship tournament finals will be taking place on Night 1 to determine a challenger for Pete Dunne on Night 2. Night 1 will also see a huge Six-Man tag team bout pitting British Strong Style (Pete Dunne, Tyler Bate and Trent Seven) against The Undisputed Era (Adam Cole, Kyle O’Reilly & Roderick Strong).
The first round matches for the tournament (taking place at the Download Festival) have already been announced as follows:
Jack Gallagher vs. Drew Gulak
Ashton Smith vs. Joseph Conners
Flash Morgan Webster vs. James Drake
Kenny Williams vs. Dave Mastiff
El Ligero vs. Travis Banks
Zack Gibson vs. Amir Jordan
Tucker vs. Joe Coffey
