“The Demon King” Finn Balor opened up about the wild 24 hours between becoming the inaugural Universal Champion at SummerSlam to relinquishing his title the next night on Raw due to a shoulder injury. Balor’s expected to return from shoulder surgery in six months. Below are his comments.

Balor underwent successful shoulder surgery yesterday. The following comments from Dr. Jeffrey Dugas was an update provided by WWE last night at 10:00 pm ET.

“Finn’s injury was pretty severe, more severe than normal. A really high energy injury, it did more damage than a standard shoulder dislocation where you simply tear the labrum. The prognosis is excellent, however. We were able to fix it all and put it back where it came from. I’m anticipating him getting back at full speed.”

Balor tweeted the following after his surgery.
