Barthel says they are here to restore honor and professionalism to their sport. Aichner says British Strong Style has expired.

This was as an incredibly technical and hard-hitting match. The first few minutes were spent with both men exchanging holds. The escapes and reversals were great fun to watch. After a while, Ohno seemed to realize that he wasn&#8217;t getting very far trying to beat Gallagher in a technical match. Ohno punched Gallagher in the face and bloodied his nose. That rocked Gallagher and changed the complextion of the match. Ohno started to hit more strikes and started looking for the rolling elbow. That caused Gallagher to start working on Ohno&#8217;s arm. Though the match ended with some controversy, it was still a great wrestling match.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nPiper Niven says she didn&#8217;t come to NXT UK to talk, she came here to fight.

Nina Samuels did well, but it never felt like Storm was in any danger of losing her title tonight.
