Gargano picked up the second win by throwing Ciampa out of the ring after he had just hit Balor with the Fairy Tell ending.
Cole found himself on the scoreboard soon with a Panama Sunrise on Gargano. Ciampa levelled the scores after delivering a Fairytale Ending to Cole. He successfully pinned the Undisputed Era leader to even the scoreboard.
With just a minute left in the match, Balor scored a pin on Ciampa after hitting him with a Coup de Grace. Balor looked certain to win the match. However, he celebrated his win a little too early as Cole delivered a last shot and pinned him in the dying seconds.
Finn Balor vs Adam Cole was soon announced for the NXT Title after the 4-way Iron man match to call it a night. A little frustrating to not see an outright winner after 60 minutes of fighting. However, a match between the two longest reigning NXT Champions isn’t a bad trade off.
