Finn Balor Chimes In On NXT VS. AEW

The Wednesday Night Wars between NXT and AEW continues to be the talk of the wrestling community. Every week both companies pull out all the stops to gain viewership for their brands. Finn Balor, who recently moved back to NXT, talked about the competition with AEW in an interview with Sports Illustrated.

Here’s what he had to say:

“I don’t know if we’re competing with anyone. The only person I’m competing with is myself from yesterday. I’m trying to be better than who I was yesterday. On this Wednesday, I’m going to be better than I was last Wednesday. That’s the way I approach life and that’s how I evolve. I don’t worry about what other people are doing. I’m focused on the brand I’m currently working for.

People talk about going back to NXT. For me, NXT is the purest form of wrestling on this planet in every sense. To be able to step in that ring and do what I do best, with no restrictions whatsoever, is the greatest honor I can have. So I’m treating this like an opportunity to help evolve as a performer and help change the game again.”
