Finn Balor has been on a roll of late, defeating two superstars to reach the finals of the King of the Ring tournament.

The Prince overcame Cesaro on the October 8 edition of SmackDown to march to the semi-finals. In the latest edition of Supersized SmackDown, Finn locked horns with Sami Zayn.

The Conspiracy Theorist almost secured the win after catching Balor with a Blue Thunder Bomb. Finn kicked out of the pin attempt, nailing Zayn with the Coup de Grace to secure his spot in the finals.

Finn Balor is now just one match away from being anointed King at the Crown Jewel pay-per-view this coming Thursday. He will compete against either Jinder Mahal or Xavier Woods in the final as they square off in the second semi-final of Monday Night RAW.

The former Universal Champion will move to the red brand after the event per the draft. In this article, we look at five possible feuds for Finn Balor following WWE Crown Jewel.

#5 Kevin Owens vs. Finn Balor

Despite feuding with Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss on SmackDown, Kevin Owens was unable to gain traction with the WWE Universe. Now moving to RAW after the Draft, KO can certainly look for new challenges on the red brand.

A feud with 'King' Finn Balor could work well for KO in a 'Battle for the Crown' contest. These superstars have battled in the past and the new storyline will add more substance to their feud.

The reignited rivalry between the babyfaces will surely be a must-watch for the WWE Universe.

#4 Edge vs. Finn Balor

The contest between Edge and Finn Balor will be an epic first as both superstars have never met inside the squared circle.

If Edge beats Seth Rollins at Crown Jewel and Balor becomes King, a feud between the two babyfaces will certainly light up the RAW roster. Both have mostly been fan favorites in their careers. The match will pin two different eras of pro wrestling.

The Spear up against the Coup de Grace certainly seems like a thrilling possibility.

#3 Damian Priest vs. Finn Balor for the United States Championship

The WWE United States Champion Damian Priest has had a great year so far. He moved to the main roster, tagged along with Bad Bunny at WrestleMania, and won the coveted title. Meanwhile, Finn Balor is yet to win the US title.

With Balor now on RAW, he might challenge Priest for the title. 'The Archer of Infamy' has impressively retained the title against two WWE legends, Sheamus and Jeff Hardy.

The battle between Balor and Priest will be filled with physicality and high-flying, proving to be a must-watch for the fans.

#2 Bobby Lashley vs. Finn Balor

Bobby Lashley and Finn Balor previously fought for the Intercontinental Championship. The Prince had beaten the Almighty at Elimination Chamber 2019 and WrestleMania 35.

A clash between the two could be on the cards, as Lashley will certainly want to settle the score for previous losses. The Almighty is currently in a heated rivalry with Goldberg, with their feud set to culminate at Crown Jewel.

#1 Finn Balor could challenge for his first WWE Championship

Despite being the inaugural WWE Universal Champion, Finn Balor has never staked his claim for another world title.

WWE champion Big E will defend his title against Drew McIntyre at Crown Jewel. If the title continues to remain on the red brand with E, Balor could challenge him for his first shot at the elusive championship.

Big E will rely on his brute strength against Balor's high-flying in-ring maneuvers. Irrespective of whoever emerges victorious, one thing is for certain: the WWE Universe won't find a more engaging contest.
