Not shocking. When he is at the top and has to go all out on a regular basis, he gets hurt. When he's in less matches and can take it a little easier, he gets hurt less
@@flippa.shi30uh...selling comes after the impact. He was on Seth's shoulders and Seth had full control. If this was a female wrestler you would call your own comment "victim blaming". Do you even understand the words you threw here?
@@theYPa1 u talking as if u know me. If Finn didn’t put his arm there would he have gotten hurt? Also sting was like 60 taking those moves from a man in his prime what did he expect considering sting is posed to be in hard hitting matches
And still he looked/performed like a jobber... So the whole persona became redundant. The point of the alterego was at least to give some sort of "superblost"-character. But when that alterego performs as badly or even worse... just looses. Then that whole "boost" fizzles out very quickly.
To be fair they did kinda bury the demon. They took his extremely special persona who only needed to show up once or twice a year and was supposed to basically be unstoppable and made him lose, I think twice in a row. It should have only popped up at Mania or one of the other big 4 PPVs with him winning if it pops up and Vince just saw it as a toy making machine
He fought Roman who I could understand why he lost but roman didnt rack up the long streak as yet so he could have realistically taken a loss at that point. As for Edge. He should have won that but I understand the concussion thing might have screwed that up
Yeah exactly. The way he lost to Roman was so dumb. And then losing against Edge made no sense and was a big stupid decision imo, specially knowing that he was going to leave the company a few months after that
it'll be back im sure, once fans yearn for it enough, it seems like a no brainer, it's a fan favorite character, you only gotta do it once a year, and it's guaranteed to pop like a mf
@@Kanders190.....So that means watching Undertaker at Wrestlemania sucked because you knew he was guaranteed a win all the time too? Or was it great because he put on amazing matches? But they finally pulled the trigger at the end of his last couple of years and made him lose twice. Balor could do they same with the fans not knowing when it could end.
@@Kanders190 ....Not really, you're obviously not reading what I wrote. The Demon could go on a winning streak making the fans wonder when, who and how he could and might lose, just like the fans wondered if the streak with the Undertaker would go unbroken. No one knew he was going to lose, they thought it would continue until he retired.
It is a crutch. It's like Super saiyan in dragon ball z. If you have it, and it makes you better or more powerful and would lead to doing better in the ring against someone and winning the match, then why not have it all the time? And then, what, are you always supposed to win when he has that persona on? Cos that just adds predictability. And if he loses with Demon status on, then must mean he is shit, since even when doing it, he can't win or guarantee a win.
@OscarASevilla i agree with you except not like DragonBall Z. This is real life. Lol! You have to see it from the performers' perspective. It's just makeup. He can do all the same things with our without it. It's even worse when in New Japan, Kota Ibushi had a bit of a demon mode he switched to during a match with no paint. Lol!
@@goreyboyz8564 outside of forming bullet club and 3 iwgp Jr title runs when the division was paper thin doesn't make him a legend. I'm not ignorant at all. I just disagree. You assuming based on a single sentence is the true ignorance
He probably retired it because wwe treated him the same when he wore the makeup. It used to be an instant win, now it's an instant lose. Plus all the reasons listed in the video
Finn balor is a wrestling icon he is the founder of bullet club, trained so many wrestlers like Becky etc., second leader of judgement day and many more achievements he truly deserves more respect
He should have protected the Demon character like Scott Hall protected the Razor's Edge move. If he wasn't winning, then he should have just refused to use the Demon character. It's a persona he should have brought out only when the odds were stacked against him in a PPV.
@@NOname-bv2jy no shit. It's just about protecting the character and the mythos of it. This is how you build up a character for the main event. Once you lose, that mythos is gone.
I like the idea of that his demon can return in the very high personal stakes , like what happend in his last match versus Edge Makes it pretty special and gives it a different story level elevation
It will be amazing if can pull it of with a body suit and face paint which will not take 6 hours if he do a proper storyline he can revive this alter ego and it will be remembered for ages
It should be treated like something special, and only brought out when the story demands something so intense that Finn MUST become the demon. But they also need to protect the character anytime they use it or it loses it's meaning. Like Foley did with Cactus Jack. The fueds with Triple H and Randy Orton wouldn't have been the same if it was the same Mankind or Mick Foley we'd seen, but the carnage those matches had and the respect given to the character Cactus Jack meant any match with Cactus Jack was gonna be a life or death struggle
Coulda swore I heard it was bc the paint + the sweat made him slick and it was unsafe to work that way… maybe that was something totally different then
I still remember that video that aired on Raw when Balor came on the main roster....the video in which he introduced the fans to his demon....to the meaning of Balor...it was awesome.
Demon should’ve won at mania edge ain’t a real one for not putting over fin . He could’ve said no I want fin to have his mania moment but no edge beat him in hell in a cell and jumped ship now we know all those years of criticizing cena for not putting barret over at summer slam was bs it’s easy for him to say since he was never in that position but given the opportunity we saw he did not change plans to put over a younger talent 😂
The loss still could have done a lot for his character, if they didn't cool him off. Taking a ladder to the head that busted him open was accidental, but there was so much they could have done with it that they didn't do. I agree that he should have won, but since they went the other way, they didn't even capitalise on it.
just read the entitlement in the comments. he gave a clear and logical explanation as to why he doesn’t do it just for people to shrug it off and tell him to do it anyway because that’s what YOU want. we’re regressing rapidly daily.
And golddust is just one same color basicly. No artwork etc. And still golddust looks like clown tbf. But golddust has the rest of his gimmick to set him apart from others.
Went from beating Roman and Seth and now he’s stuck in the middle of card. Let Finn win the money in the bank and cash in on Damien at one of the big shows and start a rivalry
I really hope that he changes his mind at some point and brings the demon back. I get the reasons to stop doing it, but it’s what I love most about Finn. Even if it’s only like a once per year, major PLE thing.
In the recent episode of Raw June 17th 2024 during the Judgement day promo in the background you could see a mini red suitcase with the demon logo maybe hinting a surprise return
I think he could do some more individual character work with the Demon. Just bring it for PLEs. The thing is…I think he’s just happier doing Judgement Day since he loves doing the group thing to get people over. I mean they have arguably the heel with the most heat in Dom, who was pretty stale as Rey’s son, and they are probably going to ride that heel wave to give Priest a strong face turn, or have their new heel faction on raw. Either way, he’s guaranteed to be on tv. Frankly it makes a lot of sense for the man. Doesn’t stop me from always playing as Demon Finn every time I have time for a video game or two.
I get where he's coming from, but the demon is what elevated him to the next level. Yes, he has great in ring skill and can cut promos but the paint added to the look and a wrestlers look is important to their gimmick. I think he could have gotten away with reducing the amount of makeup to like just his face and neck, but I understand why he got rid of it. Goldust, on the other hand, stayed committed to the paint his whole career.
The ring name Finn Balor is an interesting choice. The hero and the fire breathing giant all tied up in one person. A juxtaposition of fates bound together in a heroic Celtic myth...nice
Yeah, but the entrance and the persona was so good. The music, the image, it all hit. Of all wrestling i feel like the demon balor was the most wasted potential because of life things. Not wasted, but it was encapsulating.
I prefer Finn Balor the demon they making him look like a follower in judgement day and still believe they did him dirty after he came back from injury and he had to vacate the title!!

Takes too much time and hasno real change lol like it's great to see but doesn't do anything

Demon Balor should have been undefeated in wwe. Would have held some merit
No
So then every time he uses it, we know he'll win and when he doesn't use it for a big match, we know he'll lose.
Brilliant.

@@Gekkcodoesn’t excuse making him get beat with the demon persona

That would be a great way to both dissolve the stable as well to give him a huge and deserved push to the main events
If The Wyatt Sicks feud with Judgement Day, I would love to see The Demon vs Uncle Howdy
As someone who did this in college for a costume contest. Can confirm it took me 8 hours to get all the paint on. Taking it off wasnt fun either
Did you win?
@@Juju_The_Dude 2nd unfortunately. A little person had a really good jigsaw puppet on the bike costume that even I couldn't deny it was better

I don’t think he will ever be main event again without it the whole point is needing the demon to come out to beat the odds
Who would've thought the best way to defeat Demon Finn Balor was a broken turnbuckle 😮💨
Coulda swore I heard it was bc the paint + the sweat made him slick and it was unsafe to work that way… maybe that was something totally different then
I just want to see Finn Balor be Prince Dewitt again and lead the Bullet Club instead of being in The Judgement Day taking a back seat.
So you want him to leave?The group that has in his own words made him the happiest in his entire career.You're wild for that
I liked the response not disrespectful or anything respect earned @@bigchees3850
I still remember that video that aired on Raw when Balor came on the main roster....the video in which he introduced the fans to his demon....to the meaning of Balor...it was awesome.
He should do “bad guy” things when he is the demon then if he wants us to hate it.
Bring back the demon king
Finn looks damn good in red.
It freaking cool.
He really brings it out in manger rivalry.
It’s understandable he got tired of doing it but I do love it when he did it broski is a legend for doing it for so many years
That Punisher look was sick
The demon king became very beloved by fans and most importantly he elevated him to newer heights
Demon balor vs the fiend would have been a match we will all love...
Since Vince McMahon has been gone we no longer see the demon
We never got the demon vs the frend

for hated and scare
meanwhile ppl: loved and want to see more
He literally just needs to do the hahaha part and he looks cool then 🤣
Nooo!!! We need The Demon Finn!! That's literally the best gimmick in WWE history 😢
Samoa Joe, Roman Reigns and Edge/Adam Copeland would like a word
We haven't seen his Demon character in a while. But he should occasionally.
Thumbnail kinda looks like he’s got the venom symbiote
I love the demon...i think the demon has only lost once...can seem to remember
Hasn't been seen since the one loss to Roman reigns
The entire Judgement Day should do the paint
He doesn't use 1916 anymore either 😢
