Ahead of the Title bout, he sat down with WWE commentator Corey Graves on the Elimination Chamber countdown show. Finn Balor talked about being overlooked in WWE and discussed how he felt he had been treated as an afterthought. He said he blamed himself for the situation.

“I’ve proved myself time and time again in this business, but sometimes I get taken for granted. ‘Good old reliable Finn.’ And you know I might be guilty. I was raised to show up, do your job, stay quiet, don’t ask any questions,” he said.

The former Universal Champion mentioned that he felt he needed to make more noise in order to get some attention.

“But the longer I’m around, the more I realize the squeaky wheel gets the grease, and I think it’s time for Finn Balor to get some grease,” he added.

Finn Balor said he needs to remove the “stain” on his career

Following his Universal Title win at SummerSlam 2016, Finn Balor looked primed to be WWE’s next big star.

However, he had to relinquish the Championship the very next night after suffering a shoulder injury. Since then, Balor hasn’t won a World Championship in WWE and is keen to make amends.

Speaking on UNLIKELY with Adrian Hernandez, he said he often gets asked the question, “What if he didn’t get hurt 10 years ago?” Balor said it felt like a stain on his career and something he needs to get rid of to satisfy the fans.
