5 Reasons why Brock Lesnar defeated Finn Balor at Royal Rumble 2019

#2 Balor was not in his Demon avatar

Somewhere deep down, we all knew that unless the Demon showed up, things would be difficult!

Finn Balor was asked if 'the Demon' would show up to take Brock Lesnar on at the Royal Rumble. He said the following to TV Insider:

I feel like maybe I leaned on 'The Demon' a little much in the past with regards to heavily relying on and hiding behind the paint. This is David vs. Goliath, and David was a man. Finn Bálor is a man. And Finn Bálor is going to walk in to face the Beast.

Balor does not measure up to a freak of a man like Lesnar and to be honest, there are very few superstars that do.

For it to be an even contest, Balor had to tap into a dark part of his persona and unleash the demon within. He did not and the result was what it was!
