Finn Balor Believes He And AJ Styles Would Make A Great Tag Team
Finn Balor and AJ Styles haven’t cross paths much in WWE and Balor would like to change that.
The two former Bullet Club members battled on short notice at WWE TLC 2017, but otherwise have kept their distance outside of a backstage segment or two. Speaking to CBS Sports, Balor discussed the idea of working with Styles in some capacity.
“Obviously, me and AJ have kind of a storied history,” Balor said. “We’ve always kind of crossed paths but never really interacted too much. When I went to Japan, he was in TNA. When I came to the U.S., he went to Japan. When I came to Raw, he went to SmackDown. So, we’ve always kind of missed each other outside of that one match we had, and that was sprung on us at the last minute. But we’ve got very similar paths and a lot of mutual friends. He’s someone I would love to not only tag with but be in the ring in some capacity. Whether it’s standing across the ring from him one-on-one or if it’s standing side-by-side, I think we would make a great tag team. Whether it’s in NXT, Raw or SmackDown, I would love to be in there with AJ.”
Balor and Styles are on two separate brands right now with Balor competing on NXT and Styles appearing on SmackDown.
Balor is set to challenge for the NXT Title on Tuesday’s NXT in a fatal four-way Iron Man match against Johnny Gargano, Tommaso Ciampa, and Adam Cole.
Fightful will have live coverage of NXT beginning at 8 p.m. ET.
