Whilst the removal of Braun Strowman from the Universal Championship match may have been bad news for the Monster, it was great news for Finn Balor.

Defeating Jinder Mahal, John Cena, Drew McIntyre and Baron Corbin on the same night last week, the Irishman truly earned his spot in the championship match at the upcoming Rumble pay per view.

And whilst many have already written the former NXT Champion off due to his size, Balor is hoping to prove all doubters wrong and slay the Beast this Sunday.

Fans should remember that Balor was the first ever Universal Champion, and after relinquishing the title the next night due to injury, will be hungry to take it back.

But with the odds stacked against him, Finn Balor may have to channel his inner demon this Sunday.
