WWE reportedly currently has plans for a match between Seth Rollins and Finn Balor for the card of next month’s SummerSlam 2023 event in Detroit, Michigan, according to the Wrestling Observer Radio.
Dave Meltzer reported that his sources stated that WWE officials’ current plans are for a rematch between Balor and Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship to take place at next month’s SummerSlam 2023 event. Meltzer reported that this is the reason why WWE has been protecting and building up Balor again with him picking up wins in recent weeks for Judgement Day.
Meltzer also reported that this was also the reason why WWE officials had Balor be the one to pick up the win and pin current NXT Champion Carmelo Hayes at this past Tuesday’s NXT show.
