What's the story?

On this week's WWE RAW, Finn Balor earned a shot at Brock Lesnar's Universal title at the Royal Rumble. Many believe that Lesnar will dominate the match and retain his title, but a WWE Hall of Famer thinks that Lesnar can be defeated and reveals how Balor can do it.

In case you didn't know...

Braun Strowman, who was to face Lesnar at Royal Rumble, was removed from the match after he destroyed Vince McMahon's car on RAW.

The Chairman announced that there would be a fatal four-way match between Finn Balor, John Cena, Drew McIntyre, and Baron Corbin, with the winner facing Lesnar at Royal Rumble.

Balor had to go past Jinder Mahal earlier in the night to qualify for the fatal four-way match, and after defeating the former WWE Champion, Balor got his win in the fatal four-way match after executing a Coup de Grace on John Cena.

The heart of the matter

While speaking on Busted Open Radio, Henry revealed what Balor could do to defeat Lesnar, and win his second Universal title.

“You look at the match Brock had with Daniel Bryan and Kurt Angle, guys that were smaller than him, one of his Achilles heels is endurance. Finn is gonna have to take his endurance to the task. Hit those legs, move around, make Brock chase him. Do some high flying stuff onto the floor. He has to tire those legs like Rocky 3 when Mr. T got tired and became immobile. That’s what I see happening for Finn if he can put that work in," said Henry (H/T WrestleZone for the transcription).

What's next?

Balor and Lesnar will face off at Royal Rumble, which will be their first meeting in the ring. Royal Rumble takes place on 27th January 2019.
