Finn Bálor: My Son is a WWE Superstar
Finn Bálor's parents tell personal stories about Bálor's journey from Ireland to Japan to WWE in the premiere of WWE's new digital series: My Son/Daughter is a WWE Superstar.
Fergal Devitt (born 25 July 1981)[1][4] is an Irish professional wrestler signed to WWE, where he performs on the Raw brand under the ring name Finn Bálor, but is currently on hiatus due to injury.
Devitt is widely known for his tenure with New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) as Prince Devitt, where he is a three-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion and six-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion, having held the title twice with Minoru and four times with Ryusuke Taguchi.[7] He is also a two-time winner of the Best of the Super Juniors tournament, having won in 2010 and 2013, and was a founding member of the Bullet Club stable. Through NJPW's working relationship with Mexican promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), Devitt also wrestled there, becoming a one-time NWA World Historic Middleweight Champion. He also wrestled for numerous independent promotions, becoming a one-time ICW Zero-G Champion, one-time RPW British Cruiserweight Champion, and a two-time NWA British Commonwealth Heavyweight Champion.[4][7]
After signing with WWE's development territory NXT under his current ring name, Bálor became a one-time NXT Champion, with his reign being the longest in the title's history at 292 days.[8] Upon arriving on the main roster, Bálor became the first competitor in WWE history to win a world title in their pay-per-view debut,[9] as well as winning his first world title only a month after being drafted to the WWE's main roster, by becoming the inaugural WWE Universal Champion.[10] However, he relinquished the championship a day later due to suffering a legitimate shoulder injury during the match.
After training at NWA UK Hammerlock, Devitt debuted for them in 2000 at the age of 18, soon winning the NWA British Commonwealth Heavyweight Championship. After graduating, his wrestling career started quickly, and he started touring Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. In mid-2002, Devitt opened NWA Ireland, his own wrestling promotion in Ireland, with Paul Tracey; the company became the sister promotion of its British counterpart under the same banner. As part of NWA Ireland, Devitt trained Becky Lynch.[11]
Devitt squaring off with Dru Onyx
On 8 October 2005, in Nashville Tennessee, at the NWA 57th anniversary show, Devitt defeated Dru Onyx for his second British Commonwealth title. After the match both participants were invited to the New Japan Inoki Dojo in Santa Monica, California to train.[12] During late 2005, Devitt also began competing for the Millennium Wrestling Federation (MWF). He made his debut in a triple threat match at Soul Survivor III on 5 November, challenging for the MWF Television Championship against the champion Eddie Edwards and John Walters.[13] He made his television debut on the November edition of MWF Ultra, in a match against Osirus.[13] After impressing many promoters and trainers, he was invited to train in New Japan's main dojo in Japan, where, in early 2006, he began training in the Japanese style of professional wrestling. He lost the British Commonwealth Championship to Karl Anderson in March 2006.[12]
In June 2007, Devitt participated in a tournament for the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) called "Reclaiming the Glory", which was to crown a new NWA World Heavyweight Champion. The championship had been controlled by Total Nonstop Action (TNA) for several years but in 2007 NWA had terminated its agreement with TNA. In the first round Devitt defeated Australian wrestler Mikey Nicholls, but lost in the second round to Bryan Danielson.[14]
New Japan Pro Wrestling
Debut and Wrestle Land (2006–2007)
The day after losing the British Commonwealth Championship, Devitt signed a contract with New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) in March 2006.[12] In April 2006, he made his NJPW debut against El Samurai, using the ring name Prince Devitt.[15] Devitt later stated in an interview with PowerSlam Mag that New Japan renamed him Prince Devitt because nobody Japanese could pronounce his actual name. In May 2006, New Japan started holding brand-exclusive events, and Devitt was assigned to the Wrestle Land brand, debuting under a mask as the second Pegasus Kid, which led to comparisons between Devitt and the original Pegasus Kid, Chris Benoit.[16]
Control Terrorism Unit and RISE (2007–2008)
During his tour of New Japan in late August/early September, he started competing under his real identity as an Irish superstar. He eventually turned heel and started teaming with the Control Terrorism Unit (CTU) in an apprentice-type role.
