Finn Balor says he felt disrespected when fans drowned him out on WWE Raw, and he's going to take it out on Seth Rollins.
In recent weeks, Balor has been locked in a heated feud with WWE World heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, as rhe Judgment Day member is determined to get revenge for Rollins taking everything from him seven years ago, when he was forced to relinquish the Universal Championship due to an injury he suffered in a match against Seth. Balor started to discuss these personal issues on the June 12 episode of WWE Raw, but the fans drowned him out by singing Rollins' theme song loudly whenever he tried to speak.
Speaking on WWE After The Bell with Corey Graves and Kevin Patrick, Balor was asked to share his thoughts on how he felt in that moment, and he made it clear that he felt disrespected.
“I felt disrespected. Obviously, the fans are there, they paid money to have their voice heard and they’re entitled to that, but for me personally, after what I’ve gone through and lost at the hands of Seth Rollins over the past seven years, I felt disrespected. I waited seven years to tell people and tell Seth most importantly how I felt and for his supporters to just drown out what I had pent up for seven years was disrespectful and that disrespect has now been turned into anger that I need to relieve by defeating Seth Rollins, not only for the World Heavyweight Championship, but for vengeance over what he took from me," Balor said.
Elsewhere in the interview, Balor described how he was born to be a heel. Check out his comments here.
