6 Best Matches of “The Demon” Finn Balor

#2 Adrian Neville vs. Finn Bálor – No. 1 Contender’s Finals match: NXT TakeOver: Rival

The match between Neville and Balor was literally a match made in heaven. Both men are arguably NXT’s best high-flying exports ever, and they performed their hearts out when they competed against each other at NXT TakeOver: Rival in 2015 for the No. 1 Contender’s spot for the NXT Championship.

Both men delivered physics-defying moves against each other, given fans nonstop action and their never-say-die attitude kept them going for a long time.

During the match, Bálor performed a running front dropkick on Neville, who was leaning against the guardrail and then later performed a diving double foot stomp to the back of Neville's head for a near fall. Neville executed a Phoenix splash off the middle rope for a near-fall. In the end, Bálor performed a running front dropkick on Neville, knocking him into the turnbuckles, followed by a Coup De Grace for a pinfall.

The match was unforgettable for NXT fans, and the two men appreciated each other’s effort by shaking hands at the end.
