Pete Dunne

Pete Dunne has seen and done it all. He has survived Japanese dojos and the training regiments of Coventry, U.K., and lived and breathed wrestling to the point that he believes everything he does constitutes a portion of his training. While Dunne began as a "full of hope" high-flyer, he transformed into a vengeful brawler who will accept nothing less than complete success. After he held the UK Championship for an incredible 685 days -- one of the longest title reigns in modern history -- few could dispute his claim that he was the "standard-bearer" of NXT UK. Butch, as he was known by Sheamus and Ridge Holland when he first came to SmackDown as part of The Brawling Brutes, soon reemerged as The Bruiserweight alongside his close friend Tyler Bate and together they set out to bring British Strong Style to new levels on the blue brand. With a penchant for inflicting pain -- not to mention, a habit of attacking anybody who stands between him and whatever prize is in his crosshairs -- Pete Dunne lives in such a perpetual state of intensity that people cross the street to avoid him. Across the ring, his opponents have no such option.
