Finn Balor has had an up and downtime in WWE even though he’s proven to be one of the best wrestlers in the company.
His first run in NXT was as successful as it could be with him being a top star there. He had a good run on the main roster, but some could argue that he didn’t reach his full potential while working with Vince McMahon.
Since he returned to NXT last year, he has been positioned as one of the key figures on the brand and is now once again the NXT Champion. He won the vacant title in a match against Adam Cole on Tuesday’s episode.
While doing an interview with TV Insider, the newly crowned NXT champion spoke about his working relationship with Triple H.
“Working with him has been absolutely fantastic. I came to WWE about six years ago with a lot of uncertainty. There were expectations, but personally, I was uncertain how it was going to go. I feel like myself and Triple H struck an understanding early on in my career at NXT. It has grown and developed. He is someone I can say I’ve spent in and out of the ring more than anyone else. I trust his direction and take his advice. He’s someone I feel very fortunate to have developed a friendship with the last couple of years.
Maybe I’ve proven myself to him as someone he can trust to get something done. We have a good bond. Having gone through what he has in building NXT and the brand, hopefully, I won’t let him down by continuing to build the brand and perform at the highest level.”
Balor also talked about his latest reign as NXT Champion, match with Adam Cole, and more. Check out the full interview here.
