4 Potential Partners for Finn Balor to take on Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush
In a shocking turn of events, WWE booked Finn Balor to lose the Intercontinental Championship on Raw last week. The move wasn’t greatly appreciated by the WWE Universe who had already prepared to watch Finn Balor walk into WrestleMania 35 with the title around his waist.
Balor lost the title to arch-rival Bobby Lashley in a one-on-one match, but WWE did not let Lashley get a clean win as Lio Rush’s distraction at ringside was the reason behind his loss.
Even though the decision by WWE to take the title away from Balor seem like a bold yet bad move, it must have some reasons behind it.
WWE has now booked a tag team match between Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush, and Finn Balor and a partner of his choosing.
As the choice is Finn Balor’s to make, quite a few names come to mind when we think of all the babyfaces Balor could pick to help him gain an upper hand against Lashley once again.
Take a look at 4 potential partners for Finn Balor to take on the heel team of Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush on Raw.
#4 Apollo Crews
While Apollo Crews has seen several ups and downs in the past one year, the highlight of his career has definitely got to be his match against Kurt Angle last week, even if it wasn’t the best of matches.
WWE has given Apollo several pushes in the past few months, but then stopped short whenever fans got used to him, his talent, and his athleticism.
Working as one of the biggest babyfaces on the brand, if WWE is actually going to give him a push, then he should pair up with Finn Balor for some time.
Apollo Crews is as strong and as athletic as any man in WWE today. This gives him a significant advantage over other competitors, and he could surely work with Finn Balor in matches in a supporting role.
Apollo will be a great tag team partner for someone like Finn Balor, and a tag team match against Intercontinental Champion Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush can help him get in the mid-card title picture in the future.
