– Due to the big wins for Sasha Banks, Finn Balor, Apollo Crews and Dolph Ziggler on WWE TV this week, there has been a lot of speculation that Triple H might have had a hand in booking this week’s shows, as the NXT stars looked very strong on Monday and Tuesday night. Dave Meltzer clarified the speculation and reaffirmed that Vince McMahon is still in control of booking WWE TV.
– Speaking of Finn Balor, who will face Seth Rollins at WWE SummerSlam to crown the first-ever WWE Universal Champion, took to Twitter today and reflected on his time in WWE NXT, the big wins on RAW and more.
Balor also confirmed that he will be working this week’s NXT live events in Texas. He tweeted:
To have been a part of the team that helped NXT become what it is now is without question my proudest accomplishment

Raw on Monday was the result of 16 years of hard work, preparation & a lot of help from a LOT of people I’ve been fortunate to learn from.

But trust me, I am under no illusion that the hard work is done. Monday was 1 night, This Is Just The Beginning…

..And if it takes another 16 years to get where I want to be, at the very top, that is what I am willing to give. I AM ALL IN#Real
