WWE NXT: Samoa Joe attacks Finn Balor after title match drama

Baron Corbin assaults Apollo Crews in Orlando

Samoa Joe sent shockwaves through NXT by attacking Finn Balor at Full Sail University on Wednesday night.

Balor's NXT Championship defence against Apollo Crews ended prematurely when Baron Corbin appeared and attacked both competitors.

Joe rushed to the ring to run Corbin off but then stunned the Orlando crowd by cracking Balor - the man he had banded with to win the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic - with a Muscle Buster.

Balor and Crews had been in the middle of a cracking clash before Corbin and Joe's interjections but the NXT Title picture is now somewhat cloudy.

Elsewhere on NXT, there were Divas victories for Asuka and Eva Marie, over former Funkadactyl Cameron and a local athlete respectively.

Plus, Angelo Dawkins was bested by Bull Dempsey - and then saw tag-team partner, Sawyer Fulton, storm off in disgust.
