As seen on RAW, Finn Balor relinquished his newly-won WWE Universal Championship after winning it one night earlier at SummerSlam. Balor is expected to be out of action for 4-6 months with a shoulder injury, suffered when taking a barricade powerbomb from Seth Rollins.
A series of matches featuring Sami Zayn, Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, Enzo Amore, Big Cass, Chris Jericho and Roman Reigns will take place with a new Universal Champion being crowned next week.
Balor cut a promo on RAW and said he will come for the title as soon as he’s healthy enough. Below is video from that segment:
