Edge vs. Finn Balor at WrestleMania 39 was reportedly cut short by WWE

The Demon King and Brood Edge squared up inside the notorious Hell in a Cell, and the match was a violent battle between two of the company's top wrestlers.

According to Dave Meltzer of WON, the match between Edge and Finn Balor was scheduled to last considerably longer than it did. The contest was halted short because Balor was busted open during the match and needed medical attention before continuing.

While the former Universal Champion wrestled for a few more minutes after his injury, Meltzer believed the WrestleMania 39 match was supposed to go the distance despite the setback.

"The match was going fine, and then Balor got cut, and there was blood everywhere, and they didn't want to show blood, so they basically, like, stopped the match. It was a lot more blood, but people didn't realize it because of the makeup," Meltzer reported.
