“I’m not a movies guy, I’m not an internet guy, but when the bell rings, I am THE guy.”

Finn Balor wasn’t wasting time this week when he came out to address his future in NXT. He talked down Matt Riddle and Johnny Gargano, both men he defeated at different TakeOver events, and was looking for a new victim on NXT as he has already done it all and even won the Universal Championship.

However, he wasn’t ready for the challenge that was coming his way as the most captivating entrance music in WWE today hit the stereos. Imperium’s Fabian Aichner and Marcel Bartel made their way out to deliver a message from their leader and reigning NXT UK Champion, WALTER.

The two men were attacked by Balor, but they fought him off and stomped him into the ring steps. The two men left Balor lying motionless after the attack, showing that he is not ready for what’s to come.

The Ring General is arguably the most dominating force in NXT, and a battle between him and The Prince of NXT will be a treat for the fans of NXT UK.

This will be the best story for Finn Balor on the Road to WrestleMania as the NXT UK brand is the only brand where he is yet to win a championship belt.
