WrestleVotes recently reported there has been talk of having Finn Balor defend the WWE NXT Title at WrestleMania 37.
Balor is currently scheduled to defend against Pete Dunne at NXT TakeOver: Vengeance Day special this Sunday. He did an interview with The New York Post about this possibility and doesn’t seem to be interested in the idea.
“Ehh, it would be very cool but I feel NXT is something that is very close to my heart and NXT Takeover at WrestleMania weekend is a huge event and a huge kind of flag bearer for NXT,” he said. “And not having the NXT title match on Takeover, if that’s gonna in any way damage the NXT brand, it’s something I’d rather stay away from.
“Once we’re protecting the NXT brand without having it diluted by the big show at WrestleMania it’s something I’d be willing to do. If there’s the possibility of defending the title back to back nights, Takeover and WrestleMania, then I’m all for it.”
