In an interview with ESPN, new WWE UK Champion Pete Dunne revealed that Brock Lesnar is his dream opponent and explained why:
“It’s the realism, the way he carries himself. It’s 100 percent believable because he’s real. That’s someone who I’d love to get in the ring with someday. I don’t think there’s a possibility of it ever happening, but I’d also love to wrestle William Regal one day.”
Dunne also commented on his critically acclaimed match with Tyler Bate at NXT Takeover: Chicago:
“I’m really glad I got to share that one with him. I had a big hand in training Tyler. I got him his first ever booking, which was against me in a tag match. As proud as I am of myself for being able to hold this WWE title, I was incredibly proud of him, as well. The two Brits on such a huge show of this magnitude.”
