When Finn Balor reunited with Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson last week for the first time in years, it was hoped that this wasn’t a one-off deal. It turns out that this might actually be the beginning of something.

Balor Club defeated Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Jason Jordan on Monday after answering Jordan’s claim that his group was the most dominant three-man group in WWE history. Getting the band back together was a great way to do something with all three men, who were floundering in the weeks and months prior. But now, it’s looking like they might be together for a longer haul.

We’ll keep this as a cautious “up,” but hopefully it bears some fruit in the coming weeks.
