Finn Balor Wins First Match On WWE SmackDown Since 2019

Finn Balor had been gone from the main roster for more than a year due to his run in NXT. But “The Prince” has returned to WWE SmackDown, and in his first match back on the blue brand, he took down Sami Zayn to pick up an emphatic victory.

In a hard-fought match, Balor took everything Zayn threw at him and dodged a Helluva Kick attempt from Zayn. He then took control with double foot stomps and two shotgun dropkicks. In the end, Balor clinched the win with the Coup de Grâce.

With the victory, Balor seems ready to return to prominence on the blue brand following his successful return to NXT; during his time back on the black-and-gold brand, he won the NXT Championship and held it for several months. Now, he’s shifting his focus to the WWE Universal Championship, and this win began his quest on a strong note.
