Rumors of big main roster superstars moving to the NXT brand came true on the grand occasion of last night’s live NXT event. Starting from now, the developmental brand goes to war against AEW every Wednesday night. So we assumed that some huge segments will be in-store to top the TV ratings. The most incredible one of them occurred when the first-ever Universal Champion Finn Balor returned to his home territory.

Big Update On Finn Balor Quitting WWE In Future
Adam Cole successfully defended his NXT Championship against Matt Riddle in the opening contest of the two-hour special show. Once the match was over, he found out Finn Balor was out there the season premiere episode. The audience gave massive pop to the superstar as he soaked all of those to deliver massive news.

After staring down the current NXT Champion, Finn Balor informed the fans that for now, he will be appearing on NXT. No further update is available on what the plans for him are going to be. But since he had a face-off with Cole, it is likely that he soon challenges the leader of the Undisputed Era for a title match. A rivalry between these two superstars will be an added attraction for the NXT fans.

This was the first time that we have seen Finn Balor on WWE TV for over a month. He appeared on Raw after suffering a loss to “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt at SummerSlam before heading into a hiatus. During this vacation, he married his girlfriend to become a married man. Hopefully, lady-luck will give a massive boost to his career.

Bringing Finn Balor is a smart decision for the WWE officials as he could regain his mojo back. As mentioned earlier, he won the first-ever Universal Championship back in 2016. The reign lasted for only one day after which the creative team wasted him for the past few years. Featuring in a title feud against Adam Cole could take his status back to upwards direction which could then bring him back to the top of the main roster, where he belongs. We have to wait and see what could be waiting, next for the Irishman.
