Finn Balor heaps praise on Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns received heavy backlash in the initial stage of his career. WWE pushed Reigns to the moon without caring about the reaction of the WWE Universe. This made life difficult for Reigns as he was constantly criticized for very action he took. People even forgot the immense talent Reigns possessed.

In a recent interview with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, Finn Balor explained how people forgot Roman’s skills back in his early days. He also added that people have finally realized the potential of Roman in the last few years.

Finn Balor added- “The world was talking s— about Roman and his abilities and his performances. From the first moment we locked up, I knew he was something special. He was operating on a different level that people didn’t quite fully understand. Now people are learning he is a once-in-a-lifetime talent. Roman’s proven that over and again, and the masses have accepted and acknowledged that ability and growth. His presence is just unimaginable right now. “

Reigns defeats Balor to retain the Universal Championship

Finn Balor and Reigns locked horns in the latest edition of WWE SmackDown. The match was made official last week when Finn came out to challenge Roman for the title. Before the match, The Usos viciously attacked Balor at ringside, which gave Roman a tremendous advantage against the former Universal Champion. However, even after the attack Balor suffered, The Prince was impressive throughout the match and stood toe to toe with Reigns.

Balor even nearly pinned Roman after hitting the Coup de grâce. Reigns then regained his control and made Finn submit to the guillotine. But the huge talking point from the match was the subtle hint of the return of the Demon King.

Fans are excited and impatient to see the Demon King back. For Roman, The Tribal Chief also needs to monitor Brock Lesnar, who returned at SummerSlam. Lesnar will appear on the next edition of WWE SmackDown, live from Madison Square Garden.
