Thursday night, Samoa Joe pinned Finn Balor for the NXT Championship, which fanned the rumors that Balor was joining his former Bullet Club cronies Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson on the main roster Monday night. Balor announced otherwise.

The former NXT champion told the Poughkeepsie crowd at an NXT event that Samoa Joe better worry as he’s not leaving NXT anytime soon. Twitter user BalorClubGuy caught the moment on video.

Finn says he’s not going anywhere, says he’s staying in NXT? #NXTPoughkeepsie pic.twitter.com/w1JZeYUoGR
So what could this mean for Balor’s push? Let’s face it, the guy is a star who is ready to shine on either the Red or Blue brand, but I guess the question remains is does he really need Anderson and Gallows in the long run? With the rise of NXT talent getting called up more and more, it makes sense though for Finn to hop on this trend. Bullet Club or not.
What do you readers think? Do you think Balor is ready for the big time on the main roster or does he need a little bit more time? Chime in the comments below.
