WWE NXT Results (7/13): Finn Bálor vs Shinsuke Nakamura in the Main Event!

Bálor works a knee bar and transitions into a front chancery. Nakamura goes for a sunset flip, but Bálor reverses it into a double foot dropkick for another near fall. Bálor chops Nakamura from corner to corner. Nakamura manages to get his boot up, but Bálor grabs the boot, kicks the knee, drapes it on the rope and double foot stomps it. Bálor sets up for a surfboard but ends up just double stomping both Nakamura’s knees. Bálor locks in a heel hook. Nakamura fights out of it and manages to hit a kitchen sink, followed by a spinning enzguri. Nakamura used his injured knee so Nakamura immediately falls to the mat clutching his knee. Both superstars get to their feet. Nakamura kicks Bálor in the throat. Nakamura lays Bálor on the top rope and lands a running knee to Bálor’s gut.

Nakamura sets up the reverse exploder, but Bálor fights out of it. Nakamura mounts the top rope, but Bálor kicks him in the head, causing Nakamura to tumble to the outside. Bálor dropkicks Nakamura to ensure he stays outside the ring. Bálor goes out to the apron and penalty kicks Nakamura in the face! Bálor climbs the turnbuckle and double stomps Nakamura in the back of the neck. Nakamura misses a head kick. Bálor grabs Nakamura’s leg and locks in a leg submission I have never seen before (I don’t feel bad because Cory Graves said the same thing). Nakamura gets to the ropes to break the hold. Bálor tries to grab Nakamura’s leg to continue the assault, but Nakamura kicks him in the back of the head. Bálor tumbles toward Nakamura, and Nakamura traps him in a jumping cross arm breaker! Bálor tries to fight out of it, but that just allows Nakamura to transition into a triangle choke.
