Cameron Grimes was unhappy about an attack on NXT

NXT superstar Cameron Grimes hit out at Finn Balor on Twitter ahead of their match next week.

Former NXT Champion balor attacked by a mystery assailant a couple of weeks ago and made his way to the WWE PC during this week’s show to find out who was responsible.

Balor promised that whoever was attempting to make a name for themselves and get a “push” by targeting him would soon regret their actions.

Grimes ran his mouth earlier in the night, and Balor made his way to the ring after his quick victory over Denzel Dejournette to confront the former Impact Wrestling star.

A stomp and a sling blade later, and a match between the two was set for next week.

Balor returns to NXT

Finn Balor made a surprise return to NXT, one of the main brands of WWE. A former champion on the black and gold brand, Balor hadn’t been seen on WWE TV since he was defeated by The Fiend at Summerslam.

Balor made his NXT debut in late 2014. He quickly grabbed attention, not just for his reputation as a versatilely grappler but also for his entrances.

During his time in NXT, Balor feuded with the likes of Neville, Kevin Owens, and Samoa Joe. He captured NXT’s top prize, holding the brand’s main championship for more than 200 days. He would be called up to Raw, WWE’s flagship program, in 2016.

Finn was burnt out and needed some time off to “recharge,” so he put in a request with the WWE and has been out ever since.

Perfectly in time with his departure was his Intercontinental title loss to Shinsuke Nakamura during Extreme Rules.
