WWE NXT Champion Finn Balor recently spoke with Xposé and was asked to give his prediction for a fight between fellow WWE Superstar Sheamus, or his Irish MMA counter-part, “The Notorious” Conor McGregor. Surprisingly enough, Balor didn’t pick who everyone might think.
“That’s a good question, Sheamus or Conor, ” said Balor. “Both obviously have their strengths [and] both have their weaknesses. It depends on what setting you put them in, really. Because if you put them in a WWE ring — Sheamus. If you put them in the UFC Octagon — maybe Conor. So, [it] just really depends on the situation.”
When put on the spot and told he had to pick one outright, Balor offered the following response:
“Well, their won’t be much left of Sheamus after I’m done with him, so Conor all the way [laughs].”
