WWE Hints at Finn Balor’s Old Gimmick Returning – WWE fans are buzzing after what many believe could be a subtle tease pointing to a major character shift for a top RAW star. During Monday’s episode of RAW on Netflix in Germany, Finn Bálor stepped forward to challenge CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship, setting the stage for a high-profile title match.
During the segment, Punk made it clear that he was willing to defend the championship. Bálor then raised the stakes by proposing that the match take place in his home country of Ireland. WWE later confirmed that the World Heavyweight Championship bout will happen on RAW in Belfast next week, immediately fueling speculation among fans.
Following the show, attention shifted to a backstage interview featuring AJ Styles. Viewers quickly noticed a large “X” symbol visible in the background during the segment. One fan took to social media to highlight the detail, suggesting it could be a hint tied to Bálor’s past personas.
LOOKS WHAT WAS BEHIND AJ STYLES IN HIS INTERVIEW LAST NIGHT 2 X’S IS THIS A HINT THAT THE PRXNCE IS COMING BACK???????? OR EVEN THE DEMON??????
While some dismissed the sighting as coincidence, the same “X” symbol also appeared later during an interview segment with Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez, conducted by Sam Roberts and Megan Morant on the RAW recap. The repeated appearance only added to the speculation.
Many fans feel that Bálor is overdue for a major world title run. He was previously involved in a World Heavyweight Championship feud with Seth Rollins two years ago but was unable to capture the title from The Visionary. Since then, Bálor has remained a consistent presence on RAW without holding a world championship.
As for his past personas, Bálor has not fully embraced an alternate gimmick in recent years. The last time fans saw a dramatic shift was when The Demon returned for a Hell in a Cell match against Edge at WrestleMania 39. The “Prince” persona, which helped define Bálor earlier in his career, has been absent even longer.
With RAW heading to Belfast and a world title match confirmed, fans are wondering if WWE may be preparing something special. Whether it is the return of The Prince, The Demon, or simply coincidence, the upcoming show in Ireland has become one of the most anticipated episodes of RAW in recent memory.
