Finn Balor plays a despicable on-screen gimmick on WWE RAW as part of The Judgment Day. However, he shed his character on social media recently by reacting to Sami Zayn's Instagram post about the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict.

Zayn is fiercely political and rarely shies away from expressing his opinions on the internet. He promotes many humanitarian efforts as well, including his Sami For Syria initiative that aims at providing medical care to those affected by war. The former champion has been vocal about the Palestine conflict too, with a lot of his social media dedicated to raising awareness about the situation.

Jim Cornette is not a fan of Finn Balor's booking in WWE

While Balor has done a commendable job as a member of The Judgment Day, Jim Cornette isn't convinced about his presentation. On a recent edition of his Jim Cornette Experience podcast, the former WWE manager blasted the promotion for pushing Balor as a top-level heel, saying his physical stature was unimpressive.

"Finn Balor is not a big f***ing big-time top heel. I'm sorry, but he's got the rag in his back pocket and he's wearing sneakers, and he's got the little voice like that, and he's a foot shorter than [Damian] Priest, and 40 pounds lighter or whatever it is," Cornette said.

The Judgment Day hasn't been on the same page in recent weeks, with issues popping up between Finn Balor and Dominik Mysterio. Rumors have also indicated that Carlito could be removed from the stable altogether. It remains to be seen how things pan out as the faction continues to be one of the most entertaining parts of RAW.
