There's mutual respect between champion and challenger

NXT Champion Finn Balor and Kyle O'Reilly meet

Shawn Michaels was seated in the ring with the NXT Championship in front of him. HBK asked for both men to shake hands, which they happily obliged. After all, there are no hard feelings between these two.

Michaels said that Finn Balor is definitely at the peak in his career, but he's facing off against the best-kept secret of NXT. Balor stated that Kyle O'Reilly is in no way a secret. He's one of the greatest wrestlers on the planet. He's a tag team specialist, but he's an incredible singles competitor, something we've seen outside NXT.

"I don't think Kyle is a secret at all... This business watches me, because I watch this business, and I 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 how good @KORcombat is." - @FinnBalor #WWENXT #NXTTitle pic.twitter.com/4GYqUnuIOp

O'Reilly felt that Balor was being smug, but needed to understand that he was facing certain defeat at NXT TakeOver. Balor asked if The Undisputed Era would be joining Kyle O'Reilly. The multi-time NXT Tag Team Champion said that this wasn't about UE, it's about his ability as a competitor.

Shawn Michaels asked if there was really any power struggle going on in The Undisputed Era. O'Reilly denied it. When it came to being the underdog in this fight, O'Reilly thought it was bulls***. Balor has never faced anyone like him, because there is no one like Kyle O'Reilly.

‘I’ll tell you the WHOOP is The WHOOP is understandingthat there is a difference between a main event that lasts for one nightAnd a main event that is life altering... not just for you But everyone that sees it’ F❌❌❌

Balor finished the talks saying that O'Reilly has the ability to take that NXT Championship off of anyone. Well, anyone except Finn Balor.
