Current NXT Champion Finn Balor recently spoke with Sporting News‘ Brian Fritz in promoting NXT Takeover: Brooklyn. You can read a few excerpts below:
On The Charity Buzz Auction:
Basically, we’re working together for the New York Police and Fire Widows’ and Children’s Benefit Fund. It’s a great charity and we’re going to auction off the opportunity for someone to come to the Performance Center and get some demon painted up and get a tour of the Performance Center and it will be a good day.
On His Match Against Kevin Owens At NXT Takeover Being His First Ladder Match:
I’ve been involved in a few stunts and hardcore matches that have involved ladders but I’ve never been in a specific ladder match. So this is something very new to me. I’ve been doing a good bit of homework watching my good buddy Neville and his match against Bo Dallas for the NXT Championship. I know I may be considered the underdog going into this match with Kevin having a lot of experience in ladder matches but I’ve up for the challenge. I’m excited. It’s something new. I think the sold out Barclays Center in Brooklyn is going to be in for a treat.
