On a night which had Paul Heyman introduce NXT TakerOver: Philadelphia, Pete Dunne called out Brock Lesnar, as well as everyone else in WWE.
Since winning the WWE UK Championship, Pete Dunne has been a dominant force in professional wrestling. Samoa Joe described him as an ambassador for British wrestling, and someone that has made a significant impact which resonates throughout many.

Dunne expanded saying that the UK Title is his world – whatever, or whoever is next, he plans to remain UK Champion.
When asked about what 2018 holds for him, Dunne explained that he’s going to “continue to put the UK on the map” and that the UK division will represent the best sports entertainment in the world.
On being asked about who he would like to face, Pete Dunne just said “anyone and everyone” before also dropping Brock Lesnar’s name as a worthy opponent.

Opinion:
I can easily see Pete Dunne on NXT, RAW, SmackDown Live, it’s just a matter of time. One of the questions will be: What happens with the UK title when Pete Dunne moves onto bigger things? Is it incorporated onto NXT? Or does it remain a separate division that exists but doesn’t…? Big things are ahead for Dunne, but the structure and fine details haven’t been revealed as of yet.
