"Last one was 22 hrs this one will be 22 Secs. Both after SummerSlam" - WWE Universe debates over a situation that may embarrass Finn Balor
Finn Balor hasn't had the best run in WWE as of late. He recently lost the World Heavyweight Champion match to Seth Rollins at Money In The Bank, which would see him exact revenge against The Visionary after seven long years.
At the Money In The Bank PLE, the newly crowned Senor Money In The Bank, Damian Priest, made his way to the ring during the bout between Finn and Rollins to ensure that both men knew that he had his eyes on the prize.
Priest's involvement at ringside caused some distraction to both Balor and Rollins. The Prince couldn't believe that his friend would do that to him. The two had a short confrontation during the match, leading Rollins to capitalize and pick up the victory.
Now that Damian Priest holds the Money In The Bank briefcase, fans are running with it and suggesting many theories. One such fan raised the question about Priest cashing his MITB contract at SummerSlam after Finn Balor defeats Seth Rollins. A successful cash-in would result in Balor's name again going down in history for the shortest run as a champion.
What if Balor beats Rollins at Summerslam then Priest cashes in immediately making Balor shortest reigning champ once again? It’d be cinema
The WWE Universe has shared their view on it, with some stating that it was a great idea and that they were on the same page, while others didn't think it was a great idea at all.
@BobbyTakeshi Finn having another short Title Reign would ruin him.
@BobbyTakeshi Heel Priest along with TJD vs. A Babyface Finn Bálor for WHC would be great Story
@BobbyTakeshi Then he goes on an absolute rampage as Demon Balor.
It would not only give his Demon character some more meaning but it has massive potential as a story in general.
@BobbyTakeshi I can 100% see Priest becoming the leader of the faction. I think it would elevate him greatly, open the door to a change in direction and allow Finn to start a new group.
@BobbyTakeshi I thought this was gonna happen at MITB
@BobbyTakeshi That would be a great way to turn Balor face atleast. And maybe then Edge could beat Priest for the title down the line for a one last hurrah with the belt he is most associated with.
@BobbyTakeshi Isnt everyone thinking this.
Other solution would be Finn Losing to Seth again cause of Priest and priest going Out of this Situation as the face
@BobbyTakeshi Please, just because something is good doesn’t make it cinema.
@BobbyTakeshi honestly what i was thinking too. would suck to see seth lose it but the pay off for balor would be amazing
@BobbyTakeshi Balor spirals out of control. JD & AJ try to talk him back up. But it's didn't work. It takes the man that started all of this, Seth Rollins to take Finn under his wing and build him back up (ala Rocky lll) and returns in his ultimate form to take back the title from Priest. https://t.co/WUV0PpzAd1
@BobbyTakeshi Last one was 22 hrs this one will be 22 Secs
Both after SummerSlam
What did Damian Priest do after he distracted Finn Balor at Money In The Bank?
In the opening match of the PLE, Damian Priest won the MITB briefcase to become Mr. Money In The Bank this year. Later in the night, during Rollins and Balor's match, Priest made his way to the ring to remind everyone who he was.
Finn Balor was visibly shocked and distracted by Priest's presence, leading to Seth Rollins winning the match. Later in the press conference, Priest addressed why he made his way to the ring during the match.
"I think he wasn't sure if I was there to cash in on him, which wasn't the goal, it wasn't an idea of mine, I did not want to do that. If anything, I wanted Seth to feel the pressure of me possibly cashing in and I wanted Finn to win the title. Unfortunately, it didn't happen that way."
What transpires of this incident between the twp Judgment Day members on RAW tonight is yet to be seen.
