The highly anticipated Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Finn Balor match took place at the NXT tapings Friday night and the match has been receiving a lot of praise from fans in attendance. Fans who are waiting to watch the match at home luckily won’t have to wait that long to see it, Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Finn Balor at the tapings and the match should air on the WWE Network in a few weeks.
After the match Finn Balor celebrated with Shinsuke Nakamura and fans in attendance noted that Finn appeared to be saying goodbye to NXT. Last week it was reported via the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Finn Balor’s main roster debut is “imminent.”
Of course that rumor has popped up before and Finn has said “goodbye” before, but the timing for a Finn Balor main roster call-up has seemingly never been better. The Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Finn Balor match should air on July 13th and the WWE Draft will be taking place on July 19th. Will Finn Balor be making an appearance? We’ll just have to wait and see.
