“So, the reason that I’m here on SmackDown is to win championships. Buckle your seat belts; we’re going for a ride!”

“Obviously, there is always a plan,” he said. “I went to NXT, [and] I became the NXT Champion. I moved to RAW, [and] became the first Universal Champion, [and] became the two-time Intercontinental Champion. I went back to NXT and won the NXT Championship.”

Finn Balor – the inaugural WWE Universal Champion

In August 2016, Balor defeated Seth Rollins at WWE SummerSlam to become the inaugural Universal Champion. He was forced to give up his title after suffering a shoulder injury during the match.

Despite his lengthy layoff, he returned to RAW but never got a decent title push for a couple of years. In 2019, he faced Brock Lesnar but was unable to beat the Beast.
