WWE NXT Champion met with former ECW champion Taz for his latest interview. They both sat down in the "Taz Show: Bodyslams & Beyond". Finn talked about facing Kavin Owens on 'WWE: Beast in the east' event, his fellow country man sheamus winning the WWE Title and more. Below are some highlights of the interview:
Balor said facing Kavin Owens at BITE event in Japan was a moment where his career came to a full circle; he said it was a very high point of his career:
"I've had a lot of matches and the match with Kevin Owens really is one of probably the highest points in my career just for so many reasons. Obviously, the history in Japan and having been there, that building [Rygoku Kokugikan, also referred to as Sumo Arena]. I went to my first New Japan [Pro-Wrestling Co.] show there. I had my last New Japan match there. Then, to make that move, uncertain move to NXT, arriving in NXT with Kevin Owens, go through the same kind of struggles with adapting to everything together over the year. And then, within a year, return back to Sumo Arena, Tokyo to face someone who I became very close friends with, Kevin Owens, for the NXT title on a WWE Network special, it was kind of a very full circle moment."Also Read: WWE Slammy awards date revealed
Balor added that Owens is very genius and it's an honour for him to compete with him:
"To be in [The Beast in the East match] with someone who I consider an absolute genius in the ring, a genius on the microphone, a genius in the ring, the way he looks at the business is very different than most people, and to be in there and share that moment with him was a real honor for me."
He also talked about Sheamus winning the WWE championship and indicated that he should be the next in line for the championship:
"I just perked up a little bit, I [have] got to say, when I [saw] Sheamus coming out [after Roman Reigns beat Dean Ambrose in the finals of the World Heavyweight Championship tournament]. I always have a bit of a soft spot for a fellow Irishman, Finn beat Sheamus six times on the U.K. tour last week, so where does that leave me?"
Balor also talked about moving to US. Competing in NXT and more. You can check out the complete interview here
