6. Doubling Dain

Killian Dain's recent tear through the middle of the NXT roster finally went through 'The Bruiserweight' after the Northern Irish star got to Tyler Bate last week.

Dunne had targeted the fingers of Dain a fortnight earlier after the two clashed on the ramp, and this violent assault had all the sauce of a man waiting two weeks to get his revenge.

More was in store than expected though; Damien Priest showed some chops after wanting more of Dunne himself, but suffered the consequences of going for Dain by taking a cannonball splash into the steel steps. The former Sanity member might have worked his way into a triple threat here, perhaps even at a TakeOver if the brand can heat them all up just a little more in the next few weeks.
