Finn Balor's WWE Enterance
Finn Balor's WWE Entrance

Lady Luck hasn’t been on Finn Balor’s side. After his remarkable run in New Japan Pro Wrestling, Balor came to WWE carrying a lot of expectations, and during his time on NXT, certainly lived up to the hype. Balor had an impressive run on WWE’s developmental brand, and was drafted to the main roster, where he proved that he could hang with the top tier talent in the company.

2016 was supposed to be the year of The Demon. At SummerSlam, Balor became the first ever Universal Champion. However, he suffered an injury during the match, and had to relinquish the title. With the return of Goldberg, and WWE’s relentless efforts to push Roman Reigns as this generation’s top star, Balor had to take a back seat, and bide his time to get another shot at the championship.

The Irish Superstar certainly doesn’t lack the charisma or the in-ring skills desired from a main event caliber Superstar. WWE also recently paired Balor with Anderson and Gallows, and if booked right, Finn could replicate his run in Japan, and cement his spot as a main eventer in the promotion.
