5 Things that shouldn't happen at NXT Takeover: WarGames and 5 things that should

#2 Should happen: Finn Balor picks up a win

To the beginning of something new and exciting...

This is the first time Finn Balor has turned heel in his WWE career. Ever since his return to the Black and Gold brand, Balor has been a hot topic of discussion. In fact, the entire attention surrounding him in the last few weeks prove why NXT is the only brand that can do justice to his caliber.

Tonight, we will see Balor fight in his first televised match since his return and he has a promising opponent in Matt Riddle. Although Riddle can prove to be a worthy opponent, Balor needs to win tonight in order to establish himself as an arrogant heel that delivers.

Moreover, Balor’s victory will not go down well with Riddle who might end up attacking his opponent once the match is over. This, in turn, can plant the seeds for a compelling rivalry between two creative Superstars.

Following the Survivor Series weekend, Tommaso Ciampa will be busy with his NXT Championship feud with Adam Cole. Moreover, Johnny Gargano’s absence leaves no potential rival for Balor at the moment. Therefore, WWE can use this booking to introduce an unexpected rivalry to keep the fans invested for weeks.
