Finn Bálor

Finn Bálor enters the 2026 season as one of the most decorated and respected veterans on Monday Night RAW. A global pioneer before arriving in WWE, Bálor made history as the inaugural Universal Champion in 2016. Since then, he has evolved into “The Prince,” a calculating leader who has successfully anchored The Judgment Day through multiple eras of dominance. To see his current ranking among his peers, check our full WWE Roster page.

Bálor’s technical mastery and ruthless efficiency have earned him Grand Slam Champion status, capturing gold across every brand in the company. He began his 2026 campaign with a high-stakes main event opportunity against CM Punk on RAW (Jan 19) for the World Heavyweight Championship. Despite a valiant 16-minute effort, Bálor came up short, marking an 0-1 start to the year.

Bálor’s career is defined by high-stakes conflicts against the industry’s absolute best. His technical wars with AJ Styles and Seth Rollins have become benchmarks for modern main-event storytelling. More recently, his complex, “frenemy” dynamic with Damian Priest and his leadership of JD McDonagh have showcased his psychological depth as a performer. As he enters the 2026 season, track his progress on our official roster list.

Standing at 5’11”, Finn Bálor utilizes a surgical style that focuses on limb manipulation and explosive striking. His finisher, the Coup de Grâce (a diving double foot stomp), is one of the most aesthetically striking and high-impact maneuvers in WWE history.

In 2026, Bálor has integrated a more methodical pacing into his matches, often utilizing the strength and numbers of The Judgment Day to control the tempo. Whether performing as “The Prince” or the rarely seen “Demon,” Bálor continues to prove that precision and ring IQ are the ultimate equalizers in WWE.
