5 best NXT Matches of 2017

#4 The Authors of Pain vs. DIY (NXT Takeover: Chicago)

One of the impressive spots in a great main event.

You know the WWE thought highly of these two teams to be allowing a Tag Team Championship match to main event a Takeover show. After a series of fantastic matches earlier in the year, it seemed natural to give them the spotlight. They delivered in a brutal, ladder match.

It was a ladder match with some crazy, unique spots. Watching Ciampa and Gargano each jump off a ladder onto the Authors of Pain was impressive. Seeing Ciampa suplex Rezar through a ladder that was against a turnbuckle? Painful.

It was a fitting end to DIY as Authors of Pain established themselves as stars of the NXT tag division.
