It appears that Finn Balor is gearing up for his WWE return.
After it was reported a few months ago that Balor had scheduled to take time off from WWE for a month or two in order to recharge his batteries, WWE is starting to advertise him for shows.
PWInsider has listed the matches that will be happening on WWE’s upcoming Australian tour, which goes down from October 21st to 23rd.
On this tour, he’s advertised to challenge Shinsuke Nakamura for the WWE Intercontinental Title.
With that said, Balor is expected to make his return within the next month, which would meet the timeline of his projected return from taking time off.
