In a recent interview with the What’s The Story podcast, WWE superstar Finn Balor discussed several topics, and noted that the two months before he turned heel and kicked Edge out of the Judgment Day faction in 2022 was possibly the lowest point of his career.

“I haven’t said this publicly ever, but the two months before I turned heel was probably the lowest I’d been in my career, with respect to investment level, the personal investment. I was just showing up, I was going yeah, who do you want me to lose to today, it was just kind of the same s*** that I’d been doing over and over again, and I was doing the same act for so long, and I just felt like I had so much more to give, but it wasn’t anyone’s fault.

There were a lot of factors that led to this, one of them was COVID, because COVID meant that my green card process got all f**** up, and then because of that, I had to go home to Ireland for two months, right before WrestleMania, so then I was kind of out of the build-up to WrestleMania.

We’re just throwing s*** at the wall, and it was kind of Edge who was the one who said no, I want this guy, this guy, we’re not using him enough, I want him in Judgment Day and that’s kind of where things started to turn, and then we went with the story of putting me and AJ and Liv together as a little kind of faction, just so I had someone to turn on, that was literally set up just for me to turn, and originally I was supposed to turn on AJ, but then it all changed, I turned on Edge because I think someone got injured and they needed to turn Edge back babyface or something like that, one domino falls, the whole stack goes.”
