WWE United Kingdom Championship Renamed NXT UK Championship
The WWE United Kingdom Championship is now under the NXT banner as the belt has officially been renamed.
During the NXT UK TV tapings on Friday, Jan. 17, WALTER was presented with the new NXT UK Championship during an unveiling ceremony held by NXT UK General Manager Johnny Saint. The new title reportedly has an NXT logo in place of the WWE logo. You can see highlights from the ceremony below.
In December, it was reported WALTER had one of the WWE UK Championships stolen in a smash-and-grab in Chicago. The belt was never reported recovered.

Bit of a changed title design for the NXT UK Title. More of a name change than anything. #NXTUKYork #NXTUK pic.twitter.com/aCyarxP3Hy
