    Looks like Edge wants a match with Finn and vice versa, when is Edge due back in ring? Could it happen?

    I'd be all for that. I don't know when he's back but edge had surgery not long after he tore his tricep. Of course it could happen. I think edge has enough pull in WWE to get whatever match he wants.

    Finn Balor is once again a WWE SmackDown Superstar.

    WWE has officially moved Balor to the SmackDown roster following last night’s return during the live SmackDown from the Toyota Center in Houston.

    I'd say he is very happy in the WWE where ever they want to use him in the mid/lower card role and go out do the job and rake in the money from all those action figures and wait for them to release him.

    He's a shoo in for AEW at some stage if he's interested in going there. He's the type of guy Tony Khan loves to sign, and he would shine in a more wrestling based environment. Hard to know what his contract situation is, he may have signed a new one for his second stint on the main roster. If that was a 3 year deal it could be up later this year.

    Only reported today Vince says he doesn’t sell on terms of box office or merchandise and he will no longer push him. He’s there to get over Vince’s flavour of the month.

    They also won’t want him to go to AEW but how they could possibly get him to resign is beyond me.

    A reported guaranteed basic salary of $850k a year and he spent the last couple of years working on that salary down in NXT that's is some coin he was raking in with no traveling in those two years.

    Roll out of bed and head to the performance centre train all day and and do TV once a week from there.

    Probably hitting the million a year mark when Merch Sales, Video Games Sales ,TV and PPV Premium Live Events even the NXT ones come into play not bad for working part time for 2 and a bit years down there.


    Edit Just saw his Mrs got fired by Fox Sports last Decemeber so he might be very happy to do a Nakamura keep the head down and do what Vince wants and make good money.

    Who are the big merc sellers, Roman and New Day?

    It is a shame Vince does not see potential in Finn only as a jobber

    Hes a grand in ring performer, but he does nothing others in AEW do better than him. Hes plenty of physical charsima but vocally hes a black hole. Dont think AEW needs him with their already bloated roster, esp with the likes of Keith Lee, Johnny Gargano and Shane Strickland available too, who would have a bigger upside than Finn.

    Hes best of staying in WWE financially.

    He was a big fan of Prince Devitt apparently. Hopefully if he does sign at some stage they leave Gallows and Anderson where they are.

    Finn probably knows all of that which makes what he earns in WWE even better.

    Plus things change so much in wrestling - if he picks the right moment (i.e his last major run where money isn't a problem) he could be huge in AEW if he fancies it. Imagine them picking up OG Bullet Club members, plus a smattering of modern day Bullet Club members, with him at the forefront with ideally a mouthpiece?

    It seems like the logical place to go once the internal Elite stuff in AEW comes to its inevitable end.

    Finn is best staying in WWE financially. At this stage in his career, Id say get the big contract and earn those dollars. He would be lost in the shuffle.

    AEW doesn't need him, hes a very good in ring performer but hes no top tier guy.

    Id rather AEW avoid any bullet club rehash.
