Rating: 3*

Finn Balor might as well be the dumbest wrestling character in history. Anyone who knows Finn knows that he is much stronger as the Demon than he is as the Man, but for some reason, he considers using his Demon avatar in a match with nothing on the line against Baron Corbin, rather than in a Universal Championship match against Brock Lesnar. This is just ridiculous booking.

Regardless, this was a decent match which had Brock be driven into the corner of an announce table, which caused him much pain throughout the match. Finn performed three consecutive spectacular leaps over the top rope on to Brock.

He then hit the Coup de Grace on Brock but, was unsuccessful in getting the three count. Brock then locked him in the Kimura lock and made him tap. He then furiously laid waste to him with a couple of German Suplexes and an F5 after the match. So is Balor really being pushed?
