Adding Finn Balor to the NXT roster has given it a huge boost now that the series is live weekly on USA.
During the summer Finn Balor requested time off from WWE to “re-charge”, and was written out of all storylines following SummerSlam.
While on hiatus, Balor got married to Fox Sports announcer Veronica Rodriguez.
