Finn Balor talks Daniel Bryan and "Manic" NXT Schedule
A documentary on NXT star Finn Balor will air in Ireland on RTÉ 2 tonight at 9pm. You can watch it at RTE.ie at this link. You can check out a trailer for the documentary above. Just a note that the documentary contains strong language. Entertainment.ie has a short article about the documentary here.
The Score in Ireland recently interviewed Balor, which you can check out here. During the interview, Balor talked about the success of smaller wrestlers like Daniel Bryan. "Obviously, I'm very happy for Daniel Bryan and his success, but I don't tend to gauge my own success off what other people are doing," Balor said. "I make sure I'm taking care of myself first of all. The lads have all been great, I'm very proud of them, but I have to worry about myself."
Balor also talked about the WWE schedule not allowing him to get back home to Ireland.
"The schedule here is manic," he said. "We're working six days a week. We train in the ring three hours in the morning and an hour and a half in the weight room in the afternoon Monday to Friday. Then Thursday, Friday and Saturday we have shows in the evening where we're competing. So there's very little free time to get home, and at the moment, it's all eyes on the prize, and training to build my career in NXT."
