5 very likely options for Finn Balor at Royal Rumble 2018

#1 Finn Balor and Hideo Itami versus The Miztourage

While this scenario only happens if WWE decides to actually put Itami and Balor together, it would no doubt be a great way to give Balor an interesting storyline and help establish a future 205 Live star as well.

Not only that, the situation plays on NXT nostalgia, which might be enough to help cool fans off about Finn not being in the main event scene right now.

In the end, it may not be the stopgap anyone wanted, but you can't really deny that Balor and Itami would be great as a long-term tag team together. In fact, if WWE does ultimately make the move to keep them together for awhile, it could lead to a possible tag team match against The Bar as well.
