As far as I am concerned, Finn Balor is one of the best wrestlers in the world. The man who started the Bullet Club in New Japan Pro Wrestling, made NXT must-watch TV, and then became the inaugural WWE Universal Champion has shown that he can put on incredible matches. Still, though, WWE has never seemed sold on the idea of the man formerly known as Prince Devitt getting a run with the top championships. All-time great entrances? Yes. WWE Championship runs? Not so much.
A little less than two weeks before the upcoming Royal Rumble, Balor was given a shot at CM Punk and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in his native Ireland. Though it was a losing effort, Balor looked better than he has in years, and it got me thinking: WWE needs to pull the trigger!
