"I don't get it. He's probably one of the hardest working people in WWE, he looks great, he's professional, a great talker and behind everything, a great person. He's great behind the scenes, he will help you with anything you want and he's always polite. He was great to me when I first came into WWE and he continues to help me today."

Balor went a step further in his praise for Reigns, placing him in an elite category.

"I can't speak of anything but greatness for Roman Reigns, he's one of the all-time greats."

Reigns and Balor squared off this past Monday on Raw for the Universal Title. Reigns won the bout to retain the title. Balor received a title shot earlier in the night with Reigns noting that the Irishman had never lost the bout.

Balor was the first Universal Champion, winning the title two years ago at SummerSlam. He was forced to relinquish the title following a shoulder injury.
