Ideally, every Demon King match should be short and sweet, in my honest opinion. Because otherwise, if Finn Balor goes 50-50 against his opponent, in this case- Andrade, I do not see the point of this gimmick. Unfortunately, Balor was booked very poorly as he seemed to get more punishment than usual during this match.
My colleague Alan countered my hypothesis by saying that Andrade needed to look strong too when we were talking about the show. My argument, if such is the case, is that The Demon should not have been brought out then. From what I gather, The Demon only comes out on special occasions and a random match against Andrade isn't one such occasion.'
Also, because it was a pretty hot day, a lot of Finn Balor's paint came off by the end of the night. This match went too long.
