Finn Balor defeated Kevin Owens to become the new NXT Champion at this morning’s ‘Beast in the East’ WWE Live special at the Ryogoku Sumo Hall in Japan.

WWE Hall of Famer Tatsumi Fujinami was in attendance, and came down to the ring to congratulate the brand new champion, who made a name for himself for many years in New Japan Pro Wrestling as Prince Devitt, a three-time IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion and six-time IWGP Jr. Tag Team Champion.

Balor is just the seventh NXT Champion in the history of the title, ending Kevin Owens’ reign at 143 days.
