Pete Dunne Shares The Backstage Reaction To His Match Against Tyler Bate

Pete Dunne was recently interviewed by ESPN where he spoke on a wide variety of topics. This came only a few days after he won the WWE United Kingdom Championship from Tyler Bate at NXT Takeover: Chicago.

The match between Bate and Dunne has received a ton of praise from fans and is considered one of the best matches so far in 2017 (in WWE).

During the interview, Dunne shared what the backstage reaction was to the match:

“It was quite overwhelming to be honest. I didn’t expect it from the get-go, really. I’d be confident that any venue in the U.K., that there would be a fair amount of people that know who myself and Tyler are. It’s another thing to walk out in Chicago and get a great reception. And then to walk back to an even more overwhelming reception from the people in the back, the people that have been around the business for so long and all the great ones behind it all. It’s unbelievable.”
