It has been a year since Finn Balor returned to NXT. He largely did nothing during his time on the main roster and has since had great matches in NXT. Now, Balor has revealed what exactly he likes about NXT.
Balor revealed he enjoys the sink-or-swim mentality of the yellow brand. He compared this to the mentality of working on Raw and Smackdown. Here is the quote from his interview with Newsweek:
“I think a lot of it has to do with the schedule. We were touring heavily with NXT and with RAW and SmackDown. With NXT in my first run, we were all at the Performance Center every day. You get to really know [the other wrestlers] on a personal level, and on RAW and SmackDown, you worked four nights a week before you ever locked up with someone on TV.
You’re having live event matches all around the country against one person, so you’re very familiar with their movements and what they do on the ring.
When the red light is on, that’s when you come into your own and you sink or swim, and it’s been a real sink-or-swim mentality every night that I’ve been in the ring in NXT so far.”
Balor and Adam Cole tied in the NXT Championship Iron Man Match last night. The two finished with two falls apiece and will face each other to determine the champion next week.
