Speaking on WWE's El Brunch, the first-ever Universal Champion addressed what he classed as some "unfinished business" between himself and the current reigning top champ in the company.

The Judgement Day leader infamously went at it with The Tribal Chief last year, with Balor's Demon alter-ego falling to The Head of the Table thanks to a rather dodgey top rope deciding to break in the closing stages of their Extreme Rules war. And The Prxnce clearly hasn't forgotten about his dance with the long-reigning champ.

As Balor explained (via WrestlingInc):

"Well, I think me and Roman Reigns have a lot of unfinished business. There was a little bit of a questionable finish to our last match at Extreme Rules. When the top rope, mysterious broke in our championship match. So, I feel like there's definitely a rematch due with myself and Roman. So, hopefully, we'll get to that, soon after Clash at the Castle."

Based on recent editions of SmackDown, should Reigns manage to get past Drew McIntyre on September 3, then Balor may actually have to wait in line behind former NXT rival Karrion Kross, with the former black and gold champ setting his sights on the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion upon making his return to the company recently.

Should The Judgement Day manage to dispose of The Mysterios and Edge in the coming weeks, however, it looks as though one of Triple H's favourite stars could be eyeing up redemption before too long.
