The January 19, 2026 edition of WWE RAW at The SSE Arena in Belfast was more than just another night on the roadit was a homecoming for Finn Blor. While he came up short in the main event against CM Punk in a WWE World Heavyweight Championship match, it was what happened after the show went off the air that truly defined the night.
WWE has released footage of Blor addressing the Belfast crowd, and the moment has quickly become one of the most heartfelt highlights of the year. The crowd was already emotional after singing The Cranberries Zombie during the match. But after the final bell, Blor stayed in the ring to speak directly to his people. He started by giving his opponent full credit: Blor then paused as fans continued singing and chanting, visibly soaking in the atmosphere. He continued with clear emotion in his voice:
The arena erupted again. Then, in a statement that immediately struck a chord with longtime fans, Blor put the entire moment into perspective.
The crowd responded with thunderous applause, followed by another round of singing. Then Blor got personal, sharing a moment that had nothing to do with titles or winsjust family.
That led to one of the most wholesome WWE moments in recent memory. Blor encouraged the fans to help him celebrate.
The crowd obliged, singing a full chorus of Happy Birthday to Leonie Blor, led by her son inside the ring. After the birthday celebration, Blor once again addressed the magnitude of the night and what it meant to perform on Irish soil. As fans continued to sing and chant his name, Blor closed with a final message:
The crowd roared as Blor left the ring, not with a title, but with a moment he said hell never forget.
