Fans are set to return to WWE NXT UK tapings at the BT Sport studios in London beginning with the upcoming tapings on Thursday, October 14, 2021.

WWE fans have been absent from events for around 18 months.

Alex McCarthy of takSport revealed last week that BT Sport and WWE were working hard on trying to get live fans back.

The first episode in front of fans will be headlined by NXT UK Champion Ilja Dragunov defending his title against A-Kid.

BREAKING: NXT UK will have fans back in for their tapings at BT Studios starting Thursday, October 14.

It’s almost 18 months since they had a crowd. I reported last week BT Sport were working hard on it with WWE, glad to see it happen!
