Bray Wyatt has spent a lot of time in Finn Balor’s head heading into SummerSlam on Sunday night. So, the first-ever Universal Champion took to his demon persona to even the odds against the Eater of Worlds.

There are few things in professional wrestling that are better than when Finn Balor travels deep to the dark side and finds his inner demon.

Usually for big shows that he’s performing in, Balor will get painted up and provide one hell of a entrance for the enjoyment of fans everywhere. Sunday night at SummerSlam was no different.

Last year, Finn Balor fought through a legitimate shoulder injury to become the first WWE Universal Champion in history with a victory over Seth Rollins.

This time around, it was Balor diving into that darker side to take down former WWE Champion Bray Wyatt in one-on-one action at SummerSlam. And in typical Balor fashion, he didn’t disappoint.

As the fireflies consumed the Barclays Center on Sunday night, the building turned … red. Using a play off of Wyatt’s entrance, Balor made an awesome arrival on the scene for his match in the demon persona.

Finn Balor’s demon persona isn’t something that can really be explained and nor does it have to be. It’s freakin’ sweet every single time he gets painted up and finds that demon inside of him.

Ironically enough, the last time Balor painted in the demon persona was in that Universal title match against Rollins last year. Despite the injury that would keep Balor out until after WrestleMania 33 in April, it was a special night for The Demon King and Sunday had that same feeling prior to his match against Wyatt.
