They say to never meet your heroes.
Finn Balor is currently on the road to recovery after shoulder surgery back in August. The first ever WWE Universal champion is heavily expected to return at the Royal Rumble on the 29th of this month.
The Bray native was appearing as a special guest on day 3 at the Wizard World Comic Con in New Orleans yesterday. As is the norm with Comic Con's, there was a Q&A session with the guests at the end of it. Finn took questions about his potential return, how he likes to relax with video games. And, adorably, one from a five year old child in full 'Demon Balor' dress up.
Well, the child tries to get his question out but is so overwhelmed at talking to his hero that he gets a tad nervous. That's not a problem for Finn though.

Is it any wonder that Balor's one of the more popular stars in the WWE? He could've just moved on to take another question but decided to give Logan a moment he'll never forget.
Never meet your heroes. Unless your hero is Finn Balor. He's added to the list of sound Wicklow people.
