Seth Rollins ran down his SummerSlam opponent, Finn Balor, on Raw – before receiving a Pele Kick as punishment

Finn Balor has made quite the start to life on Monday Night Raw.

The Irishman earned a shot at the Universal Championship by pinning Roman Reigns on his red-brand debut, having beaten Cesaro, Kevin Owens and Rusev in a Fatal-Four Way earlier in the night.

Balor then took centre stage on this week's Raw after the man he will meet at SummerSlam, Seth Rollins, denigrated his achievements inside the ring.

Rollins compared Balor to second-rate sequels in film franchises and insisted the Wicklow-born former NXT Champion would be no match for the "most resilient" man in the business.

Balor's response? To kick Rollins to the canvas!

Watch Balor and Rollins' interaction in the video above - and then catch their match at WWE SummerSlam from midnight on Sunday, August 21 on Sky Sports Box Office.
