WWE NXT Results: Edge confronts Finn Balor; shocker in the Dusty Classic

It's on...but a certain Rumble winner has his eyes on the NXT Championship as well

Pete Dunne and the NXT Tag Team Champions address Finn Balor

Pete Dunne told Finn Balor that he wasn't waiting for an NXT Championship match any longer. Last week, he snapped his fingers. It would get worse if The Prince didn't give him the title match he felt he deserved. Balor appeared, his fingers taped up, looking for a fight. He said Dunne's hiding behind Oney Lorcan and Danny Buch, leading to The Bruiserweight sending them away.

Dunne warned him that the first chance he gets, he'll be taking the NXT Championship from Balor. The champ revealed that he wouldn't have to take long, as they'll be fighting for the title at NXT TakeOver: Vengeance. Just as that bombshell dropped, Metalingus by Alter Bridge hit, and Edge made his way to an NXT ring for the first time ever.

The 2021 WWE Royal Rumble Winner said that on Monday and Friday nights, WWE focuses on the "E." In NXT, however, they focus on that second "W" and that's something that excited Edge. The Rated-R Superstar stated that NXT helped give him his passion back, and he used that to win the Rumble on Sunday.

He saw so much of himself in Pete Dunne, the good and the bad. Balor? He's operating on a level so far away and above anybody else in wrestling. Those two are two of the best wrestlers on the planet. Edge said that he'll be watching TakeOver because he's never had the NXT Title, and it's something he's pretty intrigued by.

It was revealed backstage that Johnny Gargano would be defending his NXT North American Championship against Kushida at TakeOver: Vengeance. Gargano, angry at the "K" word being uttered, took the interviewer with her to Regal's office, where Kushida was lying in wait. Gargano attacked him, leading to Kushida seemingly injuring his arm.
