#3 Finn Balor vs. Kevin Owens - NXT Championship: The Beast in the East
If you are a fan of championship matches which involve two upcoming greats, then this is the match that you’ll instantly fall in love with.
The event, which was held in Japan, marked Brock Lesnar's first non-PPV match for WWE since 2004. However, he wasn’t the only Beast in the house, and The Demon was not too far away from him.
While most of the matches on the card were short, Balor and Kevin Owens fought for the NXT Championship for almost 20 minutes in a match that brought out the absolute best of both the superstars.
While Owens was focused on mocking John Cena for a good portion of the match, Balor was more focused on the title. Owens surprisingly kicked out of the first Coup de Grâce deliver to him, but Balor pinned Owens after a second Coup de Grâce for the victory to win the title.
He went on to hold the title for a record 292 days before losing it to Samoa Joe at a house show.
