Conor McGregor calls that any day that ends in y I don't think that's smoke he's inhaling, honestly.

I felt my soul cringe watching that. f*** me that was embarrassing. It felt like they kept the camera on his stupid gurning face for an hour.
Man, Balor really is the corniest goof in the company.

The erotic Rastafarian jester is atrocious.
I don't care if he wrestles more intensely or whatever, the whole presentation is absolute cringe.

I want Demon Balor to be even more OTT and campy. Steal and enter in Kalisto’s “Dark” attire. Strap on a three foot long prosthetic forked tongue. Use your CGI graphics to make his eyes glow red. Flame throwers in his wrist gauntlets.

I'm more scared of Finn's abs then his demon right now.

he should intimidate him with his big sexy hose that he waves about during his entrance, it can be a battle of the big beautiful Lashley buttocks and the big beautiful Demon schlong

Did WWE fire the person in charge of providing spooky atmosphere for the Undertaker or something?
I feel like both Bray and Finn have suffered from really cringeworthy presentation of the grimdark stuff in recent years. The gimmicks themselves aren't bad, save for too much repetition and not enough explanation, but the production team just doesn't know how to convey the proper feeling through lighting/graphics/effects.
Since the company's swimming in money, they should throw some of it at someone who's worked in quality horror movies.

He's the exact same just in a goofy-ass getup with added slithering. Balor's the f***ing lamest. I keep trying to get behind him and he just keeps being a cringey f***ing dork on the mic and a one-note act in the ring. Dump him on 205Live, he can feud with Tony Nese about abs or some shit.

They gave up on the Great Pumpkin (granted, Bray came down with meningitis), but they are okay with this?

Really I think it's about time they just abandon the demon and start moving Balor's merch away from it. It's just such a watered down, pointless thing at this point, it's incredibly blatant any time Finn isn't wearing it for a big match that he isn't winning (no, winning the Intercontinental title in the first place is not a big match, that belt means f***ing nothing), crowds basically don't even react to it at this point, and the storytelling surrounding it s a total mess because while there are potential explanations for why Finn doesn't use it much, WWE can't be assed to communicate any of them.
