WWE has honoured NXT UK’s biggest fan Honey Williams in an incredibly sweet moment at BT Sport Studios.
The 19-year-old superfan has travelled nine hours each way – on a bus, no less – to attend every single taping since the wrestling giant’s UK-based show first launched four years ago touring the country, through to its move to the London studios.
During the most recent tapings on Friday, Honey was surprised with her own NXT UK Women’s Championship title belt, while the entire NXT UK roster surrounded the ring and applauded their biggest admirer.
Despite her own personal hurdles, Honey has shown a ‘never give up’ attitude hasn’t let anything stand in her way of seeing her favourite superstars in person at every single opportunity.
In an emotional video, she could be seen sharing a moment with Moustache Mountain duo Trent Seven and Tyler Bate, and there was one more surprise in store.
She also received a message from her idol, WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels, who has been a driving force behind the NXT UK brand alongside Triple H.
