WALTER has been a dominant figure ever since arriving in NXT UK. It seems like so long ago that fans got their first glimpse of the Austrian when his music hit at TakeOver: Blackpool back in January 2019. Since then, the Ring General has achieved an awful lot in WWE. He was the man to end Pete Dunne's ridiculous 685-day run as the NXT UK Champion and has gone on to embark on a brilliant reign himself. WALTER has held the championship for over 529 days, successfully defending against the likes of  Joe Coffey, Tyler Bate and Dave Mastiff during that time. It doesn't look like anyone will come close to taking the belt off him when NXT UK returns on September 17. With the gold, there's no doubt that WALTER is the top guy and he's going to stay atop the mountain for a long, long time. WALTER has been untouchable in his reignAs well as holding the UK Championship for over 500 days, the Austrian has recently achieved something else special too.Getting his first-ever WWE action figure. Ahead of NXT UK's return, GIVEMESPORT caught up with WALTER to get his reaction to being immortalised in plastic and he revealed that at first, he thought it was fake.  

"Funnily enough, I don't follow a lot of this stuff but I saw my figure online and was like 'who's ripping off action figures?!'" he said. 

I was about to message them asking 'why are you doing this?' then somebody else told me they were official and I was like 'oh, okay!'

"I don't own it yet but I'm going to get some and give them to my friends and family. [Now I’ve got the action figure and the NXT UK Championship] I’ve almost made it!"
