Poor Balor has to likely chase Lashley again for the IC Title.

When Finn Balor pinned Lio Rush to win the Intercontinental Championship, I knew the writing was on the wall, but I thought it would at least give him a decent amount of time as champ.

But as has happened with most of WWE's booking in the lead up to WrestleMania 35, things turned on a dime when he lost the title shortly thereafter.

For some reason, presumably another title match against Bobby Lashley, Balor pinned Jinder Mahal of all people in another handicap match on a recent episode of Raw.

Balor has gone from challenging Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble to an Intercontinental Champ who pinned Rush and then a title challenger who pinned Mahal.

What's become of decent runs with the titles for superstars other than Lesnar or Rollins? Balor may even come out in 'the Demon' attire, but who cares if it isn't for higher stakes?

I'd rather see him come out as 'the Demon' against the Undertaker or as a third participant in the Universal Championship match.

Otherwise, it just seems like gimmick for the sake of gimmick on the big stage. Sure, it's a huge stage, but everyone is going to have highfalutin entrances at the show. It will only lessen the effect that bringing out 'the Demon' could have.
