Speculation is always going to be around Finn and The Club. Is their any chance you can see them doing a double turn in Finn turns and gets the title while Seth turns Face.
Finn walking around as the cocky young champion with his boys with the tag titles will def spice up Raw but I can't see WWE going full throttle with that so early
Would be a nice spark tho and Seth being on the chase would be something different.

Seth turning face should happen, but Balor turning heel right now I think is a terrible idea, both due to the fact they just did that exact same story with AJ and the fact he seems to be far more natural as a face and to already be a big success in that role.
What I would do if anything is have Seth and Balor go at it for the belt but have the match interrupted early on with Reigns coming out and just slaughtering both guys and stealing the belt, prolonging a champion being crowned while building up the value of the belt early on from Reigns walking around with it and Rollins and Balor both desperate to get it (and giving Balor some much-needed fire), finally turning Roman heel, making Seth go more tweener, and delaying Balor winning it for a bigger moment.

While Finn is fine as a face for now, he's going to need to turn eventually in order to get comfortable enough on the mic to have enough staying power for the modern, smarkier audience. Once he gets to that 2nd or 3rd "Demon" appearance or so as a face, people are going to stop caring. |

Just because some people on here don't love him (myself included) doesn't mean he's in any danger of the crowd as a whole turning on him. |

I don't know about the crowd turning on him, but I could certainly see the crowd just not caring or reacting. I actually see it not being the smarks so much as the casual fans. Many of the smarks liked him because he was a good wrestler and worked in Japan. But I don't see his white bread babyface with no character getting over on Raw. I have to agree with Polaris here, after the 2nd/3rd "Demon" appearance people will be bored with him. |

I can't see Gallows and Anderson existing solely as a two man tag team for long
I think it would naturally be Balor, but there are options for a swerve, guys like Reigns, Cesaro, and Owens could also be seen as the leader of a new stable

I'd like to see it. They had the shock of Balor getting the title shot, but it would be insane to have the double turn, too. I say don't tease it, just do it out of nowhere.

Something has to happen because I can't see Ambrose and Balor both being face world champions.

Balor bores me so much that I feel it's inevitable that said turn will be a necessity, but he seemed to remain over in NXT to the end so who knows. |

They really shouldn't do the exact same turn they just did for AJ with Balor.
People that don't know of their history will just see it as a rip off.
Balor right now is one of the few over main event faces they have on RAW on top of that, it seems like a really bad idea.
And as stated despite some very vocal people on this board the majority of fans are still behind Balor.

I like Anderson/Gallows though in the role of two old travelling buddies trying to rekindle old times like they were with AJ though. I don't think it would hurt to have them try to get Balor in the Club and have Balor actually turn them down legit. I wouldn't be upset if Seth Rollins acquired them instead. |

Keep him away from them for a while. Let Rollins win the belt & have Finn chase.

I think they need to drag it out a while longer, and I'm still convinced that Rollins and Reigns are going to end up as uneasy allies against Gallows and Anderson at some point while Ambrose feuds with AJ on SmackDown. I think that's how we get to the Shield reunion we all know is happening. Balor doesn't fit into that scenario as well.

I say keep their history and have the Club target Balor instead of rejoining him, led by their newest member Rollins. They need to milk the demon gimmick as a face before they hotshot him right into heel status.

All it does it remind people that this could happen. |

He's had the Balor Club logo since before the Club were even rumored to be hired.
