Former WWE Universal Champion Finn Balor was the latest guest on the E&C Pod of Awesomeness to talk with WWE Hall of Famer Edge and former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Christian about a wide range of topics.
Balor has been successful everywhere he’s been whether that be on the independent scene, New Japan Pro Wrestling and both in WWE NXT where he was a former NXT Champion as well as on the main roster.
The WWE Raw star, who is slated to challenge Brock Lesnar for the Universal Title at the Royal Rumble, talked about the differences between NXT and WWE main roster in this interview.
“It’s totally different. The whole idea of NXT is to prepare you for WWE and it did in a lot of ways, but there’s nothing that’s gonna prepare you for live Monday Night RAW when you’re used to 2,000 people in Pittsburgh at a house show. Obviously, we learned a lot on the TV tapings, but we only did those once a month and if you’re only working one match on the three-episode taping, you’re not getting that many reps that often. For me, it was a huge jump moving to RAW.”
