Karl Anderson On Finn Bálor: I Hope He Gets A Chance To Be World Heavyweight Champion

Karl Anderson wants to see Finn Bálor hold the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Despite holding an impressive list of accolades throughout his time with WWE, Finn Bálor has yet to capture a world championship on the main roster since becoming the inaugural WWE Universal Champions at SummerSlam 2016, a reign that was cut short after one day due to a shoulder injury.

Speaking to TMZ’s Inside The Ring alongside his tag team partner Doc Gallows, Karl Anderson hailed Finn Bálor as one of the best in the world and said he hopes to see him capture the World Heavyweight Championship.

“Finn [Bálor]’s a top, top, tippy top guy, man. And this is his moment. I hope he gets a chance to be the World Heavyweight Champion and he gets to be a heel Finn Bálor at the top, a heel champion. Or also of course, a babyface Finn Bálor champion. Either way, I think Finn is a World Heavyweight Champion. No doubt.”
