NXT Title
Finn Balor (c) vs. Karrion Kross (with Scarlett)

* Kross showed off his power early in the match and Balor responded by slapping Kross. That led to Kross turning up the intensity. Kross ran towards Balor but was sidestepped into the ring post and that led to Balor working over the arm. Kross tried to gain momentum but Balor kept going after the arm. Kross eventually made a full-fledged comeback and got a nearfall with a powerbomb.

* Kross went to finish off Balor but Balor recovered and hit several of his signature moves. Balor hit the Coup De Grace but Kross kicked out. Balor got a submission on Kross and Scarlett yelled to fire up Kross. Kross was able to break the submission hold and repeatedly hit Balor with strikes. With Balor up to his feet, Kross hit a running strike to the back of the head and pinned Balor to capture the title.
