In the main event of WWE NXT: New Year's Evil, Kyle O'Reilly will get another shot at Finn Bálor's NXT Championship.

The first time Bálor and O'Reilly faced each other, Bálor walked away with a broken jaw, and O'Reilly lost some teeth. Though he came out on the losing side, The Undisputed ERA member pushed Bálor to the limit in one of the most hard-hitting affairs in NXT history.

O’Reilly gained another date with "The Prince" after he defeated Pete Dunne with a Tornado DDT and a flying knee drop in a grueling clash.

Bálor vs. O'Reilly II is expected to be a more fast-paced, physical and violent than their "Match of the Year" encounter at NXT TakeOver 31. WWE later added that WWE NXT's first main event of 2021 will air uninterrupted with "non-stop, bell-to-bell action".

As for the result, Bálor will probably win again. He should have another lengthy title reign atop WWE NXT, similar to his first run with the title. Kross could dethrone "The Prince," but for now, Bálor will reign supreme.

Our Pick: Finn Balor retains.
