5 Reasons why Lio Rush has been added to the Lashley vs. Balor Intercontinental Championship match at WWE Elimination Chamber 2019

#3 Rush impressed during his RAW match against Balor

Finn Balor and Lio Rush actually have great chemistry while working one another

Does the idea of Finn Balor vs. Bobby Lashley sound like an exciting prospect to you, dear reader? Speaking for myself, I must say that it does not because of Lashley's limitations within the squared circle.

Now, if you throw Lio Rush into the mix, it's a completely different story, isn't it? Remember the extraordinary match between Finn Balor and Lio Rush last week, when Lashley nominated his hype man to take up his spot?

Maybe he impressed those in the WWE think tank so much that they decided to allow Rush into the match. Rush may be one of the best wrestlers in all of WWE, considering the extraordinary feats that he can pull off.

Having him fly around the ring will just make the match that much more exciting.
