Finn Balor Relinquishing WWE Universal Championship
It looks like WWE Universal Champion Finn Balor may be relinquishing his title on tonight's RAW from Brooklyn.
As noted, Balor suffered a shoulder injury after taking a powerbomb into the barrier from Seth Rollins at SummerSlam on Sunday night. WWE officials are still waiting to see if Balor needs surgery or not.
RAW General Manager Mick Foley tweeted the following on Balor, the title and tonight's show:
Due to his injury, @StephMcMahon and I jointly accept @FinnBalor relinquishing of the @WWE Universal Championship. #Raw
