9 Biggest Winners From NXT TakeOver: Respect

3. Finn Balor & Samoa Joe

Triple H Bayley NXT TakeOver Respect

If there was ever a team of singles wrestlers put together for the sake of losing at the end of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic, it seemed like it was this one. Surprisingly, they won in the finals against the other team of singles wrestlers that seemed even less likely to make it to the finals, Baron Corbin & Rhyno.

There was the story of Finn's injured leg against The Mechanics that could've been their downfall, but they overcame that obstacle. They finished each bout with the Muscle Buster/Coup de Grace combo. The opener against The Mechanics was the overall better match but both bouts were still good.

Finn & Joe accepted their Championship trophy after the match and in the ring with the family of Dusty Rhodes. Cody Rhodes capped the festivities off nicely when he said "Tonight, we are all Rhodes."
