– Tyler Bate spoke with Bleacher Report about his match with Pete Dunne at NXT Takeover: Chicago. The highlights are below:

On Pete Dunne: “Myself and Pete are two of the best people to represent what the UK style has to offer. I’m looking forward to taking that pressure and making the most of it. You don’t even need me to tell you how physical he is. All you have to do is watch the first 30 seconds of a Pete Dunne match. He had a big hand in training me, so I know all his secrets. There’s nothing he can pull out that would surprise me.”

On wrestling in front of a Chicago crowd: “I’m very much looking forward to the fans, as typical as that sounds. Chicago fans are quite infamous for being rowdy, louder-than-everyone-else fans.”

On what makes him different: “I’d say what makes me stand out is that I pride myself on being quite an adaptable wrestler to any kind of style, whether it be technical, picking people up and throwing them over my head or even flipping around the ring.”
