Top NXT Superstar Backstage at Raw Tonight

No one is one-hundred percent sure about what direction WWE is headed on Raw tonight after Seth Rollins injury last week. WWE’s original plans have since changed and are potentially changing dramatically.

Tonight, WWE is set to unveil the full plans going forward for the World Heavyweight Championship tournament and their plans to get creative back on the right path. Ultimately, what WWE has planned is more or less a mystery, but there are now rumors of some potential surprises leaking out.

According to live reports, the current NXT Champion Finn Balor was seen heading into the arena today in Manchester with the WWE crew. Balor is currently on tour with WWE, so he’s very likely just traveling along with the rest of the roster.

According to Wrestlezone.com, there are no plans to use him on Monday Night Raw tonight.

Finn Balor was attacked by Samoa Joe with past week on NXT. Those two are going to feud over the next several weeks, but it wouldn’t be the first time the NXT Champion debuted on Raw.

Balor is tremendously over as a face in NXT. His debut on the main roster could not only help WWE during the absence of Randy Orton and John Cena, but his emergence onto the scene could make the Championship tournament more prestigious.
