Former World Champion commits his future to WWE ahead of RAW

The Judgment Day's Finn Balor has sent a heartfelt message ahead of tonight's edition of WWE RAW in Columbus. Balor and Damian Priest lost the Undisputed Tag Team Championship during the Six-Pack Ladder match at WrestleMania XL.

Despite losing the tag titles, Priest still had a stellar WrestleMania weekend. The Archer of Infamy finally cashed in his Money in the Bank contract to become the new World Heavyweight Champion during Night Two. He will defend the title against Jey Uso at Backlash next month in France. Ahead of tonight's episode, Finn Balor took to social media to share a positive message for WWE fans.

The inaugural Universal Champion noted that he had spent ten years in the Stamford-based promotion and thanked the company for the opportunity. He also added that he will not be going anywhere, as seen from his post below.

"I would like to take this moment to say thank you to WWE for 10 incredible years. And after much thought and consideration, I have decided that now is the right time to say ‘I ain’t going nowhere!’," he wrote.

WWE star Finn Balor praises Rhea Ripley

Finn Balor recently praised his Judgment Day stablemate and claimed Rhea Ripley possesses special abilities that few performers have.

Speaking with Sportskeeda Wrestling in an exclusive interview last year, the veteran spoke highly of Ripley. He spoke of her "X-factor" and also claimed that only a few people on the planet have what she does and that he had benefited from being in a faction alongside her.

"She [Rhea Ripley] brings unquantifiable charisma that rubs off everyone that's around her, and she's got that X-factor that very people have got in this world, let alone this business. So just getting to be around her and Dominik and their youthful exuberance rubs off on me and Damian," said Finn Balor. [3:30 - 3:55]

Rhea Ripley had to relinquish her Women's World Championship last week due to injury after a remarkable 380-day title reign. It will be interesting to see which star becomes the new champion in the Battle Royal tonight on RAW.
