5 Universal Championship Challengers After WrestleMania 34

#2 Finn Balor

Finn Balor was the first ever Universal Champion on RAW. Unfortunately, he suffered an injury during the course of his biggest match and had to relinquish the Championship. While he has been booked at the top of the card since his return, he never received the Universal Championship opportunity he was owed. Which brings us to the current scenario.

We understand that the size difference between Finn Balor and Brock Lesnar may have prevented a Universal Championship match from taking place. However, even though Reigns does tower over him, Balor has faced Reigns in the past. In fact, he's even defeated Roman Reigns, previously.

Fans will ardently be behind Finn Balor to chase his Championship dreams, with Roman Reigns as Champion. Balor would certainly be a great representative for the highly prestigious title.
