Finn Balor Lays Down A Challenge For Keith Lee's North American Championship On NXT

We thought Finn Balor might emerge as the next challenger for Adam Cole's NXT Championship, but it looks like The Prinxe has set his sights on Keith Lee and the North American Championship instead...

Keith Lee retained his North American Championship against Johnny Gargano at TakeOver: In Your House, but it looks like he's going to have to contend with The Prinxe next.

Finn Balor faced Cameron Grimes again this week on NXT, and when he put away the Technical Savage with a Coup de Gras/1916 combo, he grabbed the mic and made his intentions very clear. Balor said he's won a lot of championships, but never the NA title, and Lee should drop him a line once he's done "playing house."

The Limitless One was involved in a tag-team match with Gargano, Candice LeRea and Mia Yim to open the show, and ended up inadvertently knocking The Poison Pixie out. He Tweeted out the following in response to Balor's challenge.

We expected Finn to aim for the NXT Championship next, but since Adam Cole is going to have his hands full with Karrion Kross (more on that later), it looks like the NA title will do for now.

No word on when Balor vs. Lee will happen, but we'll keep you guys updated.
