Hours before NXT kicked off, WWE’s YouTube account posted a video showing Finn Balor attacking Trent Seven in the parking lot for interfering in his attack on Johnny Gargano at Worlds Collide.

The two men were prepared to square off in the ring, and Balor wasn’t ready to allow Seven to get any advantage. He attacked him with a baseball slide while he was entering the ring, and then took the fight to the NXT UK Superstar.

While Seven tried his best to get back into the fight, the villainous Balor proved too much for him. The Prince continued his attacks and finally hit the Coup de Grace followed by 1916 to pick up the win.

This was a good match that allowed Balor to continue his vicious heel run and tell an interesting story while allowing Seven to come to the forefront again and battle against a top Superstar.

With The Prince handing out so much punishment to Seven, it will be interesting to watch what he does to Johnny Wrestling when the two men finally meet in the ring after such a massive buildup.

Another interesting prospect is pitting Balor against Tyler Bate, as the two men are capable of giving world-class performances with the right storyline.
