Major Scrapped WWE Plans Revealed

Some major plans that WWE had last year, that had to be dropped due to the COVID-19 pandemic, have now been revealed.

Speaking with Sports Illustrated ahead of TakeOver next week, NXT UK Champion WALTER said he was set to defend his title against Finn Balor last year.

It seemed like WWE was planning a feud between Finn Balor and WALTER last year, and the Austrian has now confirmed that this is what WWE was working towards:

“We have never wrestled before. It’s definitely one of the matches I am very motivated to have,” WALTER continued. “Especially right now, this is the best Finn Bálor I’ve ever seen. The way he carries himself, the way he carries the company, it’s fantastic. His title reign, that’s what a title reign should look like. His title matches, that’s what title matches should look like.

“We were supposed to wrestle before the pandemic started, but we got interrupted. It’s a match I would like to have. The circumstances, whether he is NXT champion or whether I will be NXT UK champion, I don’t know, but it is a match I would like to have happen.”

During the same interview, WALTER has revealed what the future holds for him following his TakeOver match with Tommaso Ciampa next week. You can find out more about that by clicking here.
