What were the ups and downs from this episode of RAW?

#1 Worst: Taking too much punishment?

Finn Balor should have obliterated Bo Dallas

Finn Balor looked incredible and unstoppable when he was first called up from NXT. Over time, the aura surrounding the man has just diminished, and it is clear that there's absolutely no direction for him right now.

He still gets the big pop every time he steps out. We wonder how long he will, though, if he has competitive matches with competitors much further down the ladder, such as Bo Dallas. Balor should have absolutely squashed Bo Dallas, as a top-tier competitor.

If you wonder why some believe he isn't 'over', it's because he's not pushed like a main event star should be. Balor needs to appear more dominant.
