WWE has announced that they will have live events on May 6 and 7 in Norwich, England.
WWE comes to Norwich, England for the first time ever with WWE Presents: UK Championship Live from Epic Studios on Saturday, 6 May at 7 p.m., and Sunday, 7 May at 5 p.m.
Fans will see inaugural WWE United Kingdom Champion Tyler Bate, plus Trent Seven, Pete Dunne, Mark Andrews, Wolfgang, Tyson T-Bone, Sam Gradwell, James Drake, Joseph Conners, Dan Moloney and Saxon Huxley. Also appearing will be Superstars from WWE’s Cruiserweight division seen on 205 Live on WWE Network, including Rich Swann, Akira Tozawa, TJ Perkins, The Brian Kendrick and Tony Nese.*
This will apparently be taped for a television show, according to Dave Meltzer. When WWE announced the United Kingdom Championship tournament a few months ago, it was expected that WWE would turn it into an actual TV show. No word on if it will air on UK TV or just on WWE Network, or what the schedule for the show will be going forward.
Word is that Paige’s family is “furious” about WWE taping from Epic Studios in Norwich because that is where they hold shows for their WAW (World Association of Wrestling) promotion.
