Speaking on What's The Story, Balor revealed his new deal is for five years.

"Yeah, another extension for five years," Balor said when asked about his new contract. "I'm super excited. You never know. I remember when I was 20 and I was like, 'If I make it to 30 I'll be doing well.' Then, you're in your 40s and I'm like, 'Shit, do they want me to keep doing this? Am I able to keep doing it? How is the body going to feel?' We sat down, had a couple of conversations and the feelings were mutual. I wanted to stay, they wanted me to stay. We hashed it out and I couldn't be happier. It was a weird time. It was six months to when my contract was coming up. 'Shit, is the end of my run? Is it time to move on?' Ten years is incredible. I lasted for six years in England and I thought, 'Whatever I do, England is always going to be the biggest chapter of my career.' Then I went to Japan for eight years. 'You lasted eight years in Japan. That's definitely going to be the main chunk of my career.' Then, I was just going to WWE to see what happens, maybe last two or three years and go back to Ireland or Japan. Now, I'm ten years in with another five years to go, fingers crossed they don't fire me. It's a pretty wild journey."

Balor is currently one-half of the WWE World Tag Team Champions with JD McDonagh and a member of Judgment Day.

Balor joined WWE in 2014 and is a former NXT Champion and was the first-ever WWE Universal Champion.
