Perhaps the most prominent WWE Superstar without much direction, Finn Balor is in dire need of a change in character. He will presumably put Austin Theory over. But after that, the two-time NXT Champion must do something drastic.

Balor's heel turn at the start of his second NXT run did him the world of good, adding some much-needed edge to his character. The Prince was excellent on the now-former black-and-gold brand, carrying his momentum to SmackDown.

However, Balor was hurt by his Universal Title feud with Roman Reigns. The Irishman lost twice to The Tribal Chief after his initial shot was taken away by John Cena. He did not even react to the bizarre turnbuckle collapse at Extreme Rules, which gave The Demon his first defeat on the WWE main roster.

Finn Balor needs to turn heel as soon as possible on RAW, as it would help him recover from that mess. He needs to find himself again before re-entering the main event scene. Balor could even challenge Big E for the WWE Championship, with matches against Edge and Damian Priest also sounding great.

He could even form a super team with AJ Styles, now that he and Omos may be splitting. As a villain, the future is much brighter for Balor. He, more than anyone, needs to make a turn.
