No guarantee that Balor would be handled THAT much better, but dude should've been on SD after the shakeup.

Now that they have set up this framework for a feud, Balor has to win on Sunday. If he doesn't he is so totally buried that I don't know what to do with him. Honestly I'm thinking Bray wins due to interference from Goldust who Finn then feuds with. Which'd really be a way to completely kill Finn's reactions for awhile but I can see them doing it. |

Yeah, I think Goldust is interfering and he's going to start teaming with Bray which on paper sounds awesome, but so did AJ vs. Owens. I don't know who, if anyone, comes to Balor's aid against them though. |

Finn is like Jeff Hardy, where he's over and has a natural charisma that dies as soon as he opens his mouth.
Bray... he's just the shits.

Related note, is it just me or does Bray seem completely miserable lately? You can usually tell he's a lot more comfortable with the cult leader stuff than the supernatural stuff, but this feud in particular he really just seems eager to get every single segment over with as fast as possible. He's in the midst of a divorce in which he's going to get reamed for committing adulterous. I'd say that's a reason to be miserable. |

I haven't really noticed him looking miserable, but I'd imagine the divorce has indeed been stressful. Plus, I wouldn't be surprised if he also thinks his material sucks.

I look at Wyatt feuds like his opponents a having a series of bad dreams and we get to observe through a dream machine that cost us a piece our souls to view it. so.... even in losing, Wyatt wins?  |

Wyatt said wins and losses don't matter. Wyatt left the swamps, got him and his family into wrestling school, signed all of the paperwork, took physicals, got a passport, abides by the rules of his job just to say it doesn't matter if you do or don't get pinned. Well that's my take on it. |

Honestly, they still haven't given the guy any real character beyond: guy who dons spooky paint and tassel hat on occasion.

I'm glad their getting this feud with Bray out of the way cuz Finn was really getting over with the crowd before they stuck him with Wyatt.There's no better way to kill an over babyface than stick him with Bray.

And while we are at it... Dude, why are you wearing a jacket with no shirt or pants?
If you are cold, start with those two first THEN go for a jacket.

If "just like Jeff Hardy" means "relies on colourful or flamboyant attires & his looks to get over and is really overrated as a performer" I'd agree. I've never been quite so disappointed in a wrestler as in Finn Balor, I was only familiar with 1 or 2 of his matches in NJPW, he came in hyped to the moon, and from where I'm sat he's just so freaking lame. I want Bray to win this feud, even as badly as WWE keep screwing Bray up I see way more in him than Balor. |

Balor has charisma and a marketable look but keep the guy away from cutting promo's that go beyond a line.

Balor has charisma and a marketable look but keep the guy away from cutting promo's that go beyond a line. Given the chance to write his own promos, Fergal Devitt can come off as incredibly intelligent, articulate and charismatic (his Bullet Club promos and his interviews are all examples of this.) That's a beautiful head on his shoulders and I'm not just talking about that face. The problem is that someone else is writing the promos and has somehow to emulate Finn's speaking cadence, diction, and idioms without actually speaking to Finn but in such a way as to get it past Vince with his own agenda in creating the promos. Finn could have the audience eating out of his hand reading the BBC Shipping Forecast (and yes, I have a Fran meme sitting around here somewhere,) but he's being held back creatively and the product is suffering for it. |
