At the time of the show, it will be almost exactly two years since they were last in the United Kingdom, with the most recent show taking place in the same location this tour will end, in the SSE Glasgow on November 11th 2019.

Could a United Kingdom tour bring a renewed focus on NXT UK? Wishful thinking, but here are my thoughts on how they could improve the viewership for the show.
