If Seth loses to Headdress Demon Finn while wearing the white gear, I will riot.

There's no way Seth doesn't win. Combine that with the possibility of Reigns beating Ru Ru and RAW is shaping up to be Must Miss Television.

They're right, though. There needs to be a WWE Injustice game for PCs and consoles.

I think Finn will win. No way they have the Demon lose right off the bat. Not when there's all the money to come with it in merchandise.
We will get that double-turn when the Club rushes in to help! Finn as Universal Champ with his two lackies as Tag-Team Champs.

Finn needs to go through the ceremonial humbling on the main roster.
This SummerSlam card is the most stacked since 2002 and it's kind of crazy that AJ/Cena is the 4th most hyped match.
The real winner is SmackDown.

This could be considered a #ShootSunday but Ziggler vs Ambrose has the best build-up of all the feuds so far. But because it's well, Ziggler vs Ambrose it will probably go on before all the other big matches.

Zero lies detected.
I hope it lights a fire under both men and Rollins/Finn perform to a silent and exhausted crowd.
I'd say Brock/Orton is #1 honestly. Mainly because there's a belief that Brock could lose because he got caught doping.

The Demon losing no Takeover match in NXT until the last one he has in the company, and then immediately losing his first PPV match in the company, would be the most WWE thing I can think of
Hopefully they tell a story via kneepads. That's what people want.
Welcome to the big leagues, kid

Here's the thing, the demon persona doesn't need to be protected because:
1) it's no different than his regular persona
b) it's stupid

Virtually nobody in the world kicking out of the Styles clash for X amount of years, and then immediately having everyone kick out of it multiple times per match, would be the most WWE thing I can think of

People will cry for a heel Balor but never get it lol. Vince won't care, he liked the money Finn was printing.It has one advantage.

Look, the Demon makes money, sure.
But does it sell more tickets than a Braun Strowman squash?

I look forward to Braun having a squash match before the main event. It sucks that the title that's already established won't be the main event though.Look, the Demon makes money, sure.

You mean the REAL title from SmackDown. Not some Toys R Us championship like RAW.

Exactly. Fucking SDvR created title shit.

And yet you hate Becky Lynch.
AJ Styles - came in with a lot of hype as a big guy in NJPW and known as one of the world's best in ring performers - he's already lived up to that in WWE, stepped up his promos as a heel, and hopefully we'll see more and a title run
Shinsuke Nakamura - came in with a lot of hype as a big guy in NJPW and known as a very good in-ring performer - he's already lived up to that in WWE and also has a unique style of mannerisms that look great and go over really well with the crowd
Finn Balor - came in with a lot of hype as a big guy in NJPW with good ring skills which haven't really shown their face yet in WWE. Occasionally cosplays and wears some kind of dreadlock boogeyman headdress, flails around like a fuckin goof on his way to the ring.
I dunno. I don't really give a fuck about Finn Balor. I hope Finn wins just to see if he can do anything else with the belt - Seth doesn't need the win right now anyway - but Finn's Demon gimmick, yeah, is stupid and also just kind of embarrassing to watch. It isn't the body paint - if that was IT and was accompanied, like people say, with a different moveset in 'Demon Mode', then sure, I'm on board. But the fucking crawling and headdress thing (which kinda looks like a racist caricature - it's shiiiiiiiiit), needs to go.
Have him come out with the jacket on and the bodypaint.. He can still do the arm flourish thing with the music but I wouldn't mind losing it.

Well, she is awful.

Realistically, I'd love for Finn to win only for Seth to win it at WM, but that's not going to happen. Just like AJ winning the title from Dwan only for Dean to win it back at WM. Just not going to happem though.
