TLC 2018: 5 Potential finishes for Finn Balor vs Drew McIntyre

#3 Finn Balor beats Drew McIntyre clean

A win for Balor would definitely shake things up

This decision might be very, very unlikely to happen but we cannot rule the possibility of Finn Balor pulling off a huge, surprising, and clean win over Drew McIntyre. The man was the first ever Universal Champion after-all and could use all the momentum in the world right now, as we are slowly headed towards the Royal Rumble, 2019.

Balor, who was billed as this year's Royal Rumble Iron Man, could use another solid outing next year as well. And what better way to build him up other than by having him beat Drew McIntyre at TLC.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

As mentioned in the last slide, in order to protect McIntyre from suffering too much damage in momentum, Balor could use at least two Coupe de Graces (or maybe even three) and then beat McIntyre. Or a roll-up win, which will certainly go down as a clean victory, could do the work for Balor as well.
