Newly signed NXT UK talent Ben Carter had quite the eventful debut. After appearing on Noam Dar’s Supernova Sessions as promoted, a cruiserweight title match was made against champion Jordan Devlin (Santos Escobar holds the interim title). It was a major opportunity for Carter.

What transpired was a fast-paced bout between the two athletic stars. Neither man backed down, but in the end, it was Devlin that came out victorious. While Carter didn’t win championship gold, he certainly earned the NXT UK locker room’s respect in defeat.
