Backstage News On Potential Feud Between Finn Balor And Brock Lesnar Happening

On Sunday, Brock Lesnar will defend the WWE Universal Championship against Samoa Joe at the Great Balls of Fire PPV. Joe vs. Lesnar could be extended beyond the PPV, but there are still several opponents who the fans want to see The Beast Incarnate face this year.

There is a lot of speculation that Brock Lesnar will be dropping the WWE Universal Title to Roman Reigns at Summerslam. Those plans can quickly change, but that would mean that any feud involving The Beast Incarnate wouldn’t involve Raw’s top championship anymore.

For instance, Finn Balor wouldn’t need to face Lesnar in order to reclaim the Universal Title, but Balor vs. Lesnar was a feud many fans wanted to see. Dave Meltzer recently noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that WWE officials have changed their minds and a match between the two isn’t likely.

It’s possible that “The Beast” vs. “The Demon” could happen down the line at some point, but any creative plans for that match have been scrapped. If Balor will be getting back into the Universal Title picture, he will challenge Reigns or someone else after Summerslam.
