10-time champion's bold message after confirming status with WWE
WWE Superstar Finn Balor has now sent a bold message after confirming his status with the Stamford-based promotion.
At WrestleMania 40, The Prince and his tag team partner, Damian Priest, lost their Undisputed Tag Team Championship. On the other hand, The Archer of Infamy cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase on Drew McIntyre to become the new World Heavyweight Champion.
After Balor's loss at 'Mania, rumors suggested that he may leave World Wrestling Entertainment since his contract was set to expire. On social media, The Judgment Day member confirmed that he is not going anywhere and shared being grateful for his decade-long career in WWE.
This past weekend, the 10-time champion was on a packed schedule during the UK Tour before Monday Night RAW. Finn Balor took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a few pictures of him spending time with his family and also moments from the wrestling events. The 42-year-old star shared his commitment to wrestling in the past two days.
Check out the former WWE Universal Champion's tweet below:
"48 Hours in the 32 Counties 🇮🇪," he wrote.
Former WWE employee bashes Finn Balor and Sheamus
Wrestling veteran Vince Russo recently slammed Sheamus and The Judgment Day member for their current run in WWE.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Vince Russo mentioned that The Celtic Warrior and Balor are well past their prime. The former writer believes that both stars, despite being World Champions at some point in their WWE careers, could not reach new heights.
"Athletes have a shelf life and after their shelf life, they retire. They become commentators or they get a bench job managing a team. Bro, Sheamus' time is over, it's over bro. As far as I'm concerned, Finn Balor brings nothing to the table, absolutely nothing bro. They keep putting these guys on TV year after year after year. The Sheamus' and the Finn Balors, they never drew a dime. Yeah bro, they're good little hands as Dutch Mantell would say. They're good little workers. Bro, there's a billion good little workers out there," Russo said.

Ever since Priest became the World Heavyweight Champion at WrestleMania XL, fans want to see him defend his title against Finn Balor. Only time will tell if the company has potentially planned to split The Judgment Day faction in the absence of Rhea Ripley. Judging by the recent edition of RAW, the seeds might have already been planted.
