Put an end to this Finn / Priest feud now while we're at it, really doesn't need to go any further.

Yeah I’m afraid Bálor is gonna win this and they continue on towards a rubber match.

Please don’t let that happen

I don't see Punk personally happening unless it was to switch the title since I still have him with Roman at Mania.

Goldberg & Logan are totally plausible but i'd expect either of them at Mania aswell.

Since he's facing Kaiser I wouldn't be mad at a small Sheamus program to take them through.

I think whoever confronts him tonight is still likely to be a Mania tease, not necessarily the next challenger. Sheamus would work for Rumble or SNME
