What has Finn done since he returned to Raw earlier this month? Having him return to be Seth's tag partner was nice. Since then, however, he has just been facing jobbers in the midcard.
Obviously, the recent trades have left certain things in limbo. Certain guys on a new brand have unfinished business with someone on the other brand. You can understand if the WWE is a little inefficient right now.
Thing is, Finn Balor should be pushed as a priority. You don't see Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins in limbo right now. This guy was the inaugural Universal Champion. It seems the WWE has dropped the ball with all the inaugural titleholders they had last year. You would expect them to eventually move on from Rhyno & Slater. But Becky Lynch, TJ Perkins, and Finn Balor should all be featured better than they have. Don't hand someone a major piece of history unless they are hot enough to deserve it, are already getting legendary careers, or you plan to start giving them that great career. It looks like such a waste when you don't follow up on them properly.
Finn Balor obviously can't feud for the Universal Championship right now. The WWE decided to give the title to Brock Lesnar, who will not show up on a regular basis. Considering Lesnar already got a title reign a couple years ago and has not done anything since to deserve another one, this has just been a dumb decision by the WWE. Some guys could use that title to fight over right now.
Finn Balor is a guy with a lot of potential. They can push him as "Demon" Balor. They can push him as "The Club" Balor. How many guys come to the WWE with two different gimmicks they can go with that both have potential for interesting storylines, not to mention money off merchandise? But this current Balor looks very dull. It won't last forever, but it would be nice if the WWE figures something out soon.
