4 people who defeated Finn Balor clean in WWE

#2 Samoa Joe

Balor was defeated clean by Samoa Joe in NXT and the same thing happened again when the two reunited on the main roster in a Fatal 5-Way match to determine a new No.1 contender for Brock Lesnar’s Universal Championship.

Many, including myself, had him down as favourite to win the main event of Extreme Rules 2017 and go on to challenge Lesnar for the title that he had to give up 10 months earlier.

However, after landing a Coup de Grace on Roman Reigns, Joe crept up behind Finn and locked in his Coquina Clutch finisher. The Irishman attempted to free himself but, just like in NXT, he ended up passing out to the brutal submission.
