Finn Balor on Which WWE NXT Star Doesn’t Get Enough Credit, What to Expect at NXT, Favorite Entrance

– WWE NXT Champion Finn Balor recently spoke with Kerrang! to promote the current UK tour. The full interview is at this link. Below are highlights:

What is your all-time favourite wrestling entrance? What gets the hairs on your neck standing, without fail?

“Stone Cold Steve Austin, when the glass breaks. It just gets you every time, doesn’t matter if it’s a small house show or a big-bang show, just once the glass breaks it gets everyone riled-up, so that’s easy!”

Apart from yourself, of course, who are your top picks from the NXT roster to go onto superstardom in the WWE?

“I think there’s some very obvious ones, like Apollo Crews, but two for me that have really started to stand out in recent times are Jason Jordan and Chad Gable, as a tag team. I think someone who I don’t think gets enough credit is Aiden English, and I think in the future he’s definitely one of the unsung heroes of NXT – and I think he has a very bright future, be it as a tag-team wrestler, as he is currently, or as a singles wrestler in the future.”

So then, to the people heading down to an NXT show, or considering getting down to one, what’s to be expected?

“Well I always like to describe NXT as more of a rock’n’roll wrestling show. It has that kinda underground, indie feel that I was so accustomed to in the independent circuits that I loved so much. So, for me, it’s been a beautiful coming together of working with the WWE but also still having that raw organic feel of being an independent, so that’s the one thing that makes NXT so different than anywhere else. It’s kinda having the hybrid of both very different styles.”
