#2 Best: Finn Balor's push

Maybe this talented young star will finally get his due

As we keep reminding ourselves, Finn Balor was once a Universal Champion. Yes, he was all set to become the top superstar on RAW. And then a freak injury put him on the shelf and he was never able to bounce back to the same level since then.

Rumours have come forth that Balor is in line for a huge push, going forward. This is certainly good news and the rumours seem to be true, considering that he's been winning a lot more than he's been losing. This week, he won a triple threat match that featured two top superstars in Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre.

Let's hope that this momentum carries Finn Balor at least till the Intercontinental Championship in the weeks that follow. Balor and Ambrose can certainly have quite a feud, down the line.
