Finn Balor won the WWE Universal title on Sunday night and this bar went absolutely bonkers
WWE SummerSlam 2016 went down on Sunday night, and while it was a good show, there were some moments that left people a little sour. But one of the moments that did not leave wrestling fans sour was the fact that Finn Balor, the Irish superstar, became the first ever WWE Universal Champion.
Balor has been a star for so many years around the world, and because of that, everyone has been loving his run in WWE. He has been shot straight to the top, and on Sunday night at SummerSlam, he took his career to the next level with his win.
Now, of course, as much as we all love watching him here in the states, you know that the people of Ireland loved seeing him capture that title on Sunday night. If you need proof of that, look no further than the people of this Irish bar that watched him take home the coveted gold.
Professional wrestling might not be the most popular sport in the world, but watching this will straight up give you chills. They are so proud of Balor that they are basically treating it like a World Cup win, which makes the moment that much more awesome.
Now, though, the question turns to where we go from here. Balor is the face that runs the place on RAW right now, which is a lot to ask someone who has just been called up. He is basically the man at the moment, so he has a lot that he has to live up to.
He can probably do it, there’s no doubt about that. But no matter what happens in the future, he will always have this moment to look back on with a smile on his face.
