A glimpse at the ups and downs from this week's show

#2 Worst: Nothing for Finn Balor?

Doesn't the first Universal Champion deserve better?

Finn Balor took on Curtis Axel, this week on RAW, one week after he took on Bo Dallas. No offence to either man, because they're both solid performers all around. But doesn't someone who was rumoured to face Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble, deserve far better?

If nothing else, a performer at Balor's level at least deserves a worthy opponent such as Elias (who wasn't even on the show, this week). We're certain that the Balor Club isn't too pleased with the lack of direction for the Demon King.
