8 Ups And 4 Downs From WWE NXT Takeover: Unstoppable
Ups...
8. Balors Grand Entrance
When was the last time you heard someones ring entrance garner a Holy S#*+! chant? Fans have seen Finn Balors Demon entrance, complete with war paint, multiple times now, but he really turned it up a few notches at Unstoppable, leading fans to lose their collective minds. Balor added wings and spikes down the spine of his getup, while the body paint he dons had spread to his back, chest and legs. Writhing and crawling through a heavy cloud of fog, Balor had the fans in his corner from the get-go. His ring entrance alone is enough to get that support, but considering that he can back it all up in the ring, its safe to say that Finn Balor is a major star in the waiting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3b-S_XA5Ic And winning the No. 1 contenders match against Tyler Breeze in convincing fashion only reinforced that he is going to be a big deal when he gets to the main roster.
