The dream match agreed to by Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura on June 15 not only set the NXT Universe abuzz, but it also set in motion events that must lead to the conclusion of The Demon's time atop the brand as its icon and greatest champion.
Balor has accomplished all there is to do in NXT. As Nakamura alluded to in his promo during the aforementioned June 15 broadcast, the Irish-born competitor has become an NXT icon in ways none of his predecessors had. He was the longest-reigning heavyweight champion in the brand's history, a record unlikely to be broken anytime soon.
