#4.) Finn Balor vs Seth Rollins

The match to crown the inaugural Universal Champion was quite an underrated one, primarily overshadowed by two things: the look of the title and what happened the next night. Finn Balor took on Seth Rollins to determine the first-ever Universal Champion. It was a vital match for the brand split and fans hoped that Balor would win.

After all, he did come out as The Demon King. The crowd could have been better for the match, because it turned out to be a really good one. At the end of it all, Finn Balor walked out as the inaugural Universal Champion, but a botched powerbomb on the barricade meant that Balor dislocated his shoulders, being forced to vacate the title a night after he won it.
