WrestleMania week is here, and so far the last few days have been action packed. The stars of NXT stepped into the spotlight on Wednesday with NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver Night 1, and on Thursday Night 2 of the event aired live on Peacock.\
Finn Balor defended the NXT Championship against Karrion Kross at the event, and in the end it was Kross who ended up walking out with the gold.
Both men fought hard, but the momentum shifted when Kross beat Balor down with a series of strikes, then he drilled an elbow into the back of Balor’s head to put him away for good.
Karrion Kross is now a two time NXT Champion.
