Finn Balor Says Plans For Storyline With Roman Reigns In 2021 Changed With Brock Lesnar’s Return

There were supposed to be more to the Finn Balor and Roman Reigns’ storyline last year.

While speaking with Josh Martinez on Superstar Crossover, Finn Balor reveals that everything was supposed to go in a different direction before the return of Brock Lesnar.

“I feel like it’s just been left open-ended, and the finish hasn’t been addressed. There was an idea to go a different direction, but then Brock returned, and the direction changed,” Finn Balor says. “So that’s something you have to kind of come to terms with and understand in WWE that, there’s always going to be — if one piece of the jigsaw changes, the whole landscape changes. If someone gets hurt, or someone returns, there’s always going to be different ideas and plans in place. So you just got to be able to adapt to the ever-evolving situation. That’s what we have to do but I feel like the finish of that match has definitely caused some watercooler talk, so to speak, and the fact that we’re still talking about it a year later, is evidence of that, and I feel like in the next couple of months, we should really revisit that and address what happened that night.”
