6 Talking Points from NXT TakeOver: WarGames 2019

What a show, what a night!

#4 Finn Balor feels more genuine as a heel

Yeah, it looks like Finn Balor feels more at home as a heel and that is because he has worked most of his life as an evil heel. The way he moves, the way he wrestles and the way he talks, it just feels more impactful.

In his first match after returning to NXT, Balor defeated Matt Riddle and that is no mean feat. The Original Bro is himself one of the biggest Superstars of the Black & Gold brand and pinning him clean on his return is a great way of integrating Balor back into the system.

The shades of Prince Devitt were visible throughout this match and we absolutely loved every single minute of it.


#3 Adam Cole took some insane bumps

Is there anyone in the whole WWE roster than works more than the NXT Champion Adam Cole? The Panama Playboy is an absolute workhorse and even though he has to defend his NXT Championship at Survivor Series, Cole put his body on the line at WarGames.

He took some insane hits and worst of them all was when he and Ciampa had a free-fall from the top of the steel cage and Cole landed back-first onto a chair.

The NXT Champion has already defended his title twice this month and against Pete Dunne, he will defend it for the third time. Still, there's no doubt he will have another great match.
