WWE's Finn Balor Shows Off Facial Injury Ahead Of WrestleMania 40

Finn Balor, the powerhouse of The Judgment Day, isn't hiding the damage he carries into WrestleMania 40. Set to defend the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Titles with Damian Priest in a brutal Six-Pack Ladder Match, Balor raised eyebrows on social media on March 31st.





A short video posted by Balor, simply titled "Easter Egg," showed a clear bump on his forehead. The cause of the injury remains unknown, adding another layer of drama to The Judgment Day's high-pressure WrestleMania match.





This isn't Balor's first time entering the grandest stage with injuries. At WrestleMania 39's Hell in a Cell Match against Edge, a vicious ladder strike left him with a nasty head wound that needed medical attention and paused the action. Balor's grit saw him return to the fight, making the match a WrestleMania classic.





With the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Titles on the line and a potential undisclosed injury, Balor's condition at WrestleMania 40 is unclear.
