Finn Balor: US Title defence set for WWE's big MSG Live event

WWE have announced Finn Balor’s first United States Championship defence will be at this weekend’s big Maddison Square Garden Live Event. 

Balor won the United States Championship this past week on Raw, by defeating Damian Priest and ending his record-breaking reign with the title. It marked the first time the Irishman has held the United States Championship, adding to the two Intercontinental Title runs he already has on his WWE CV.

Now WWE have announced that Balor will make his first defence of the title at Saturday’s Madison Square Garden WWE Live Event, in a rematch against former champion Priest. Finn will be looking to gain some revenge on The Archer of Infamy after his post-match attack that saw Priest throw the 40-year-old across the announce table.

JUST ANNOUNCED: NEW #USChampion @FinnBalor will defend his #USTitle against NYC’s own @ArcherOfInfamy this Saturday at The Garden!
