WWE NXT Live Event Results From Houston (7/30): Finn Balor's Farewell, Hideo Itami In MOTN, Asuka

Thanks to Wallace Rackley for the following WWE NXT live event results from Saturday's show in Houston, Texas:

* Mojo Rawley defeated Murphy. Mojo was very hype and kept the crowd hot

* Andrade "Cien" Almas defeated Blake in a decent match. Some good spots from Almas but not much to write home about here

* Carmella and Bayley defeated Daria and Mandy Rose. The heels tried to leave before the match but the babyfaces, who were over huge, brought them back. Good hard hitting action for the women, Bayley pinned Mandy after a Bayley-to-Belly. Big post-match celebration

* Hideo Itami defeated Austin Aries in what was the match of the night. Very good chemistry between the two, intense offense. Itami teased a GTS to a huge pop but Aries countered. Itami won with running knees to the face

* NXT Tag Team Champions Dash and Dawson retained over Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa in another amazing match. It looked like Gargano and Ciampa won the titles but the pin was invalid as Dash's foot was on the bottom rope thanks to Dawson. The distraction allowed The Revival to get a roll-up for the win. Ciampa and Gargano received a standing ovation after

* NXT Women's Champion Asuka defeated Nia Jax in a sick match. Very hard hitting, some good story telling. Nia looked really good, the best I've seen from her yet and some in my group agreed. She hit a People's Elbow for a big pop at one point

* It was announced that this was Finn Balor's final NXT match

* Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Bobby Roode and NXT Champion Samoa Joe in the main event. The entrances for Balor and Nakamura were electric, Balor's felt very special. They hugged before Joe and Roode came out to great heat. Great match but not the best of the night, or even second best, but the atmosphere made it. And the charisma each man has. Balor won with a Slingblade and Coup de Grace on Roode. After the match, Balor and Nakamura celebrated until Bayley ran out with hugs. Bayley cut a promo thanking Balor for everything he's done. Mojo, Carmella and Nia Jax joined the main roster send-off as Bayley and Balor spoke some more. Balor gave credit to the locker room and really seemed humbled. He sincerely thanked WWE Performance Center Coach Matt Bloom and then dropped the mic before greeting fans at ringside. Special ending to a very fun show
