Every WWE NXT TakeOver: Dallas Wrestler - Where Are They Now?

1. Finn Bálor

Here we have it: The man who won the biggest match at the biggest show in NXT history up until that point; and he did it without using the chainsaw he brought down to the ring. 

Finn Bálor successfully defended the NXT Championship against Samoa Joe in a match that was hampered by a bloody cut Joe sustained early in the fight. He lost the belt to the Samoan a few weeks later and would move on to the main roster.

After moving to Raw, Finn became the first ever Universal Champ at SummerSlam 2016, but sadly lost that belt 24 hours later on TV due to injury. This set the tone for the rest of his main roster career. Despite multiple title reigns and the odd foray into the main event, WWE majorly missed the moment when it came to the 'Demon King'. 

For the past few years, he's been part of the Judgment Day faction. Now, Bálor looks like he's heading for a WrestleMania 42 match against Dominik Mysterio, but that doesn't look like it's going to set the world on fire. Finn could've led WWE into a new era, but instead he remains a massive 'what if?'.
