#3 Triple Threat Impresses

That is really going to hurt in a few seconds.

Who would have thought that Damien Priest would have the best match of his career.

The Triple Threat match in Chicago had an issue of going after the first WarGames match. It seemed to take the hot Chicago Crowd quite a while to get into the No.1 Contender’s match between Killian Dain, Damien Priest and Pete Dunne. But once they did we saw the always impressive athleticism of Dain and the skill of Pete Dunne. This twenty minute match allowed for Priest to have his best match as well.

The match was filled with near falls and impressive pacing by all three men. It is a testament to their skill to see the crowd get into their technical match after the brutality of the previous match. All three should be proud.

The finish was a fun surprise. Pete Dunne was attempting to place the Bitter End on Priest when Dain did a Senton Splash. After Dunne was able to push Killian Dain away, he finally pinned Priest for the win.

Pete Dunne versus Adam Cole should be a great NXT showcase at Survivor Series. If both competitors have recovered from the brutality for Saturday night then we might have our potential show stealer.
