What if The Elite raided WWE?

#4 Finn Balor

Finn Balor would not only be a prime recruit for The

Elite,

but a realistic one.

Finn Balor already has ties to The Elite, as the group is derived from the Bullet Club, which he once led in its early days. A guy with Balor’s Club pedigree, a Universal Championship and WWE name recognition under his belt, not to mention his raw talent and that he’s still in the prime of his career, has to be considered toward the top of The Elite’s wish list if they try to recruit talent out of the WWE fold.

Better yet, Balor may be one of the get-able upper tier stars The Elite would be interested in. Though he was pushed as the top star in NXT for an extended run and got the beginnings of a big main roster run when he won was crowned the first Universal Champion, he has since festered in upper mid-card purgatory. While All Elite Wrestling can’t realistically offer a platform competitive with WWE, it may nonetheless offer a unique opportunity for Balor to be the man in front of a US-based audience of hardcore fans.
