5 possible directions for Finn Balor in WWE after losing the NXT Championship – Return to the main roster, revenge against The Fiend?

#4 Finn Balor remains in the NXT Championship picture

Finn Balor will continue to dominate in NXT

Ever since he moved to NXT, Finn Balor has been one of the most dominant performers on the brand. He will always pose a serious threat to the title, and he will seize any opportunity for a title rematch. We could see an extended title feud between Karrion Kross and Finn Balor for the NXT Championship. Defending the title against Balor would be huge for Kross’ title reign.

Their last match looked very promising, even though Kross is still settling inside the ring following his return from injury. NXT booked Kross as someone who relies on brute force, while Balor was portrayed as someone who can use mind games to turn any match. One of their encounters ended in favor of raw power, but that won’t be the case every time.

Finn Balor’s rivalry with Kross will also allow NXT enough time to create the next big challenger for the coveted prize of the Black and Gold brand. Balor is effortless in putting his opponents over with the WWE Universe, regardless of his face or heel run. Even without the title, Finn Balor can help several NXT Superstars who just need one opportunity to showcase their true potential.
