WWE TLC 2017: 5 potential finishes for AJ Styles vs. Finn Balor

#4 Samoa Joe costs Balor the match

Joe and Balor could have the rivalry of the year, on RAW

Now that Lesnar is seemingly facing Mahal at Survivor Series, Finn Balor really has no opponents going forward. As confirmed by various sources over the past few weeks, we know that the 38-year-old Samoais due for a return very soon indeed. It wouldn't surprise us at all if Joe were to interfere in this match and cost Balor the big win.

Bear in mind that Joe and Balor had one of the best rivalries in NXT history. The two men faced each other on multiple occasions. Joe is also the only man to have defeated the 'Demon' avatar of Finn Balor inside a steel cage, at an NXT Takeover special.

Of course, he wouldn't be helping Styles out. He'd be taking his frustrations out on Balor instead. This could set up a long-term program between the two fantastic performers.

Of course, there might be interference from two other men as well.
