Finn Balor hopes Brock Lesnar stays in WWE after SummerSlam last night.

“The Demon King” returned to squash Baron Corbin in a Singles match at “The Biggest Party Of The Summer.” Prior to the event, Balor spoke to The Gorilla Position to talk about several professional wrestling topics.

Balor offered his thoughts on now-former WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar. Although Lesnar dropped the Universal Title to Roman Reigns, Balor doesn’t want to see “The Beast” walk away from WWE. In fact, he hopes Brock Lesnar stays in WWE:

“When [Lesnar] comes out, it’s a different feel,” Balor said. “Everyone’s like, ‘oh no, what’s gonna happen? We don’t know what’s gonna happen.’ I love it, I love watching Brock. I’d love to get in the ring with Brock.

“He is an attraction and he’s been an attraction since day one. People tend to forget that, they’re like ‘oh he comes and goes,’ but Brock’s the real deal. He was New Japan champion, people forget that, you know he’s been doing it [in WWE] for years, NCAA — he’s the real deal man… UFC, duh how’d I forget that one?

“When Brock walks to the ring there’s something special there happening that night. Regardless of if it’s good or bad, people like it or don’t like it they’re all paying attention and that’s what we need — we need more of that in pro wrestling.”


With Lesnar’s loss at SummerSlam, he’s likely to return to the UFC and challenge Daniel Cormier for the heavyweight title. That could mean a long WWE layoff for “The Beast.” When asked if he wants Lesnar to return to WWE, here’s what Balor had to say:

“I hope so,” Balor said. “You never know. You know everyone said he’s out the door after WrestleMania, last SummerSlam he was going. This SummerSlam he’s going. People just make up stories in their head because it sells newspapers or clickbait or whatever.

“They just like to talk to hear themselves talk or make themselves feel like they have an opinion, but we’re all just guessing. Because it’s all media hype. Nobody knows until it actually happens… I don’t think [WWE] even knows.”
