WWE NXT Results: Cameron Grimes defeats Finn Balor
Cameron Grimes tried to deliver his finisher at the very start, but Finn Balor dodged and trapped him in a headlock. After returning from commercials, Cameron Grimes took control but The Prince replied with a standing double stomp. He then stomped Grimes into the mat, which earned him a warning from the referee. Damian Priest appeared and attacked Finn Balor with a nightstick so Grimes could pin him and win the match. After the match, Priest returned with a steel chair and revealed that he was the one who attacked Balor three weeks ago in the locker room.
