#5 Hope isn't true: Finn Balor isn't a priority for Vince McMahon
It came as a huge shock when Finn Balor made his return to WWE NXT earlier this year. Since then, Balor has turned heel and is easily one of the most over Superstars on the Black and Yellow brand. Balor's last main roster appearance on WWE was at SummerSlam where he was squashed by the debuting Fiend in a matter of minutes.
It's now being reported that the reason Balor was squashed at SummerSlam was that Vince McMahon doesn't see him as a priority. Here's what Wade Keller had to say on his recent podcast:
"Finn Balor, he is better on NXT. He is a smaller guy and if he was not a top priority for Vince McMahon when he lost to Bray. Moving him to NXT and having him compete with wrestlers more his size makes him more palatable to be a heel. It's tougher to do on WWE's main roster - RAW or SmackDown - where the wrestlers are typically bigger than those on NXT."
