What a match for a "TV match." Wow. Deserves its own thread. And really disappointed people would rather b**** about stuff as a gut reaction before they would take initiative to heap some praise on this little WWE gem this past week on NXT.

It won't get as much praise as it could, because there wasn't really any build behind it.

I wasn't much of a fan of Neville on NXT, but this makes me realise how much better he is suited down there. This might of been his best WWE match.

Best WWE match so far this year, imo.

Neville is an absolute monster in the ring. If he got to work like that on the main roster I'd be thrilled. He's Cesaro levels of great. And Finn, I don't find him quite as good, but he can do it all and show a bit more dramatic flair and emotion. Bland character but he makes me care about his matched.

Good match, slightly overrated.

One of the many things that distinguishes WWE from WWECW, FCW, OVW etc. is that their guys are ALWAYS presented as easily on par with the main roster, at least on their own show. Even if Finn is "just" champion on NXT he still beat people like Kevin Owens or Neville.

If it's the greatest match this year, then it says a lot more about the other matches, than anything else.
A good match, no wow-ness in it, for me.

I liked it, but it didn't light my world on fire.
I haven't actually watched NXT since the last Takeover except this match and a few others; has Finn ever hit the legit Bloody Sunday before? I kinda marked out for that.

Great match. But doing it around Wrestlemania time means it will possibly get overlooked at the end of the year.

Damn good match. I have it at ***3/4. The only WWE matches I rated higher so far this year are Styles/Jericho from Smackdown, Ambrose/Owens from the Rumble and Joe/Zayn from a few weeks back.

Good match but we still have a whole year left of matches that will be better than this and they will have better characters. Neville and Balor are not sympathetic at all.
