Ranking Every Demon Finn Bálor Match In WWE And NXT
12. Vs. Bobby Lashley (WrestleMania 35)
After Finn Bálor was forced to vacate the Universal Championship due to injury in August 2016, it took him three years to score another piece of gold in the form of the Intercontinental Championship at Fastlane 2019. He eventually dropped the belt back to Bobby Lashley on an episode of Raw, leading to one final encounter between the two at WrestleMania 35 where the title was again on the line.
WrestleMania this year was such a stacked card that most people probably forgot Balor vs. Lashley was even happening until it did right before the main event. By that point in the pay-per-view, they were nearing midnight, so Balor and Lashley had to work a certain type of match to ensure the audience was engaged from start to finish.
Balor's first-ever entrance as The Demon on the grand stage was such a spectacle, and he followed that up by beating Lashley in a quick and painless matchup that lasted all of four minutes. This was a tremendously fun sprint that didn't overstay its welcome.
More importantly, Balor remained undefeated as The Demon and reclaimed the prestigious prize.
