Finn is going to be the shock release this time I feel

The only time I’ve ever really liked him was when i rewatched his heel NJPW stuff. Maybe if he goes somewhere else and decides to do the Real Rock N Rolla stuff again I’ll come around to him, but I think he’s kinda bland as a face to be honest.

Not Finn's fault. Seth Rollins purposely injured Finn, same way that he purposely injured Sting.

God help Cody because Seth's probably going to purposely try and cripple Cody to spite him for being more successful and popular than Seth cuntface Rollins.

Same here. I remember watching it as it happened he felt like a huge deal. He was fucking hilarious with it too.

He can't be Prince Devitt unless he's allowed to swear like a sailor and rip the piss out of his opponent, though. That's what's sucked about his WWE runs, even when heel. The guy's naturally charismatic and a decent promo, no one can make the WWE material work though

I can't stand Balor but at least he had the professionalism to keep going to the gym while he sat in catering every week. Most of the ex-NXT guys who came into AEW stopped working out about six months before their debut. I really hope Tony doesn't bring him into AEW, he has nothing to offer.

Bullet Club plans didn't change, they literally slotted AJ in to Devitt's position. If he stayed he would have gotten AJ's matches.

Never been more baffled by a guy being hyped up. Plenty of other guys you can at least see in the ring work why people like them even if they can't work the stick. I've never seen a Finn Balor match and thought it was overly compelling from anything he did, and there's never been any reason to invest because he's not convincing enough to get behind.

Prince Devitt =/= Finn Balor. The in ring style, promo delivery, chad after and honestly everything is very different between the two. Balor is a smiley babyface being told to "make moments" with the same 3 moves, Devitt is a foul mouthed cocky little shit that mocks his opponents and steals their moves

He retained his Prince character in NXT and it was a mediocre run. Demon Finn was the only way he was gonna get over in the main roster because without it he's just another guy. There's nothing separating him from Gargano, Ciampa and certainly not cole who I'd argue was a better promo in nxt

Unless Finn lost his edge, I don't see how it could have been better. Haitch was booking and he loved Finn, I would assume he got basically free rein on his shit and much more promo time than he ever got on the main roster. Although many anons on /pw/ have this jaded view on bullet club guys like they were these mega badasses yet when they do anything in America even in AEW and Impact! where they have creative freedom and shit they end up either being dorks or just there
