WRESTLING RUMORS: Bad News For Finn Balor's WWE Future

That’s what he does. There are a lot of wrestlers on the WWE roster and some of them are not exactly presented as well as others. Sometimes you see a star who just can’t get their feet under them for one reason or another and it can be rather frustrating. That seems to be the case again with a popular star, and now it seems that we know what is going on with them.

This week on Monday Night Raw, the returning Finn Balor lost to Austin Theory in a short match. According to Wrestlingnews.co, Balor is now seen as the new Jeff Hardy, meaning the new star designated to help get younger talent over. Vince McMahon is said to have only seen Balor as a midcarder while Theory is in for a major push. There is a chance that he will be in the final four or five in the men’s Royal Rumble and a main event player in the next year.

Opinion: I’m glad to hear that Theory is going to be getting a strong push as he is the young star that WWE could use. At the same time though, it is sad to see Balor’s career going down this path. He never had a real chance in the main event due to his shoulder injury back in 2016 and has been in the same place since. It’s a shame to see, but you kind of had to know that it was coming over the last few years.

What do you think of Balor? What could he have done in WWE? Let us know in the comments below.
