Pete Dunne Claims Royal Albert Hall Main Event Was A Career Highlight, Talks WWE UK Title Defense *Spoiler*

Pete Dunne spoke to the UK media today to hype the final day of the UK Championship show as he defends his United Kingdom Championship. When speaking to SportBible.com, Dunne revealed how important main eventing the Royal Albert Hall was, and how he plans to tackle defending his title against Zack Gibson.

Working Royal Albert Hall:

“It’s a highlight of my career, one hundred percent, I think they found the perfect location. If you want to launch a UK brand, this is the best place you could possibly find. The crowd were amazing. A couple of moments in the match, it was almost quite emotional for us. The bit where we punched the three of them in the face and left the ring while we were left standing there, the crowd just kept coming, coming and coming and [getting]louder and louder.

“We knew in the moment, and we talked about it afterwards, how special that is. I think you’re only going to get that with a British audience.”

WWE Championship defense:

“I think Zack’s a great talent, he’s done really well today and it’s such a high-pressure situation. I’ve worked with him, and wrestled him many times. Obviously, this is the biggest stage and it’s something I’m used to. I hope he steps up, I hope he brings it and I hope we have another Match of the Year contender.”
