NXT General Manager William Regal issued a short statement on his Twitter earlier today providing an update on superstar Finn Balor. The Prince was scheduled to face The Velveteen Dream on this Wednesday's episode of NXT on USA, but was reportedly attacked backstage before leaving the premises.
Regal writes, "Still looking into the events that transpired before #WWENXT on Wednesday evening. I can confirm that @FinnBalor was attacked and left the premises. He’s received medical attention but is fine."
Speculation is that Balor was ambushed by members of Imperium under orders of the United Kingdom champion WALTER, who has been feuding with Balor over the last several weeks. Balor and WALTER were rumored to headline the upcoming NXT UK Takeover Dublin, but the event was canceled due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Check out Regal's tweet below.
