#4: Give Finn Balor a midcard title run at the very least

This is probably something die-hard fans have clamored for. It's apparent that Finn will likely not be given another run with either the WWE Championship or Universal Title in the near future.

Those in charge of WWE view Finn as too small and not believable as a threat to bigger wrestlers like Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar and Braun Strowman. And while that might be true on the surface, look what embracing Daniel Bryan as champion did for the company.

It left fans with a good taste in their mouths and offered hope to other wrestlers who don't necessarily fit the mold of 'prototypical WWE Superstar'. Finn is clearly over with the crowd and is a reliable, dependable performer.

His match with AJ Styles at last year's TLC PPV helped save that show after a number of superstars had to sit out due to an outbreak of viral meningitis. Giving Finn at least a run with the IC or US title will quiet down the portion of the crowd who has clamored for Balor to 'get another shot in the main event'.

It would also provide the mid-card on either show with a guy who is going to bring it against whoever challenges him. I'm not saying Seth Rollins hasn't already done this, but just that he's obviously headed for bigger things down the line in 2019.

Ad

If they need another wrestler to help carry either show if a part-timer is the main champion, then Balor is more than capable of carrying the mid-card as a champion. This might happen more so when Triple H takes over even more control backstage, but when that happens is up in the air.

Balor's message of acceptance for everyone is also something WWE could build upon for more positive publicity in the future. Giving women more chances is a good start towards progressing things and putting across a message similar to what Balor does will only help the WWE's public image.
