#3 Best: A battle of mind games

There weren't enough special entrances for such a big pay-per-view event. However, the entrance of the Demon King was a treat to watch. Balor wrestled like a man possessed when the paint came on, and even no-sold a few blows from Wyatt. It was great to see Wyatt as the hunted and not the hunter for a change in this particular match. We haven't seen The Demon King since SummerSlam last year, and one year later, the sight is still sublime.

We look to see more appearances by The Demon King in the near future. The crowd seems far more invested in Balor, when he's The Demon. Let's hope he taps into his dark side for every single pay-per-view event.
