[Brian_FETO]

Thanks for those 5 minutes Finn, hope it was worth the 2+ hours of painting/removing

 

[Silexx]

Seriously, I get why it could have been preferable to keep it until Summerslam, but some of you guys are being over dramatic about how Balor is suddenly done.

 

[Fantomex]

I honestly have no idea. I'm not familiar with this at all.

My grandma visited me once and came in the living room while I was watching Beavis and Butthead. This is probably what she felt like

 

[Jarrod38]

Wait this isn't Demon Kane.

 

[shwimpy]

DEMON KING DEMON KING DEMON KING

 

[Kusagari]

Cole saying DEMON KING every fucking three seconds is going to get mind numbing.

 

[Cheat Code]

Look on the plus side lads, he didn't cut a promo.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

There's a reason the only ones who could ever get away with shit like this are Taker and my boy Kane

 

[Wagram]

Alright i've had enough of the Demon King talk. Call him Finn Balor.

 

[Valentus]

Why waste the demon's debut in a random RAW?

What the fuck is in your head Dunn????

 

[Guzim]

Cole, you called the match where Finn won the NXT championship.

 

[Dick Justice]

STOP SAYING DEMON KING!!!

THE MAN THAT GRAVITY FORGOT, THE NEW SENSATION, NEVILLE.

 

[serenewarfare]

I think you show the demon prior to Summerslam because you want to build hype for the appearance, and make people tune in to see the actual fight.

 

[BigSoftieFF]

Well I guess old loser ass Rollins is gonna win....fuck

 

[Sanjuro]

STOP SAYING DEMON KING!!!

They need to keep saying it to prop up the future rivalry with Jerry Lawler.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Wouldn't be the first time.

Segment was fun and made Finn look like something cool and not like a random dweeb

GAF being mad because of their imaginary desire to see it for the "first" time at SummerSlam is dumb. Everyone who posts on GAF has already seen Finn do the demon entrance, ffs.

 

[ChosenPredator]

lol crowd loves it but gaf is all angry as fuck

yeah the crowd ate it up, they'll eat it up even more at summerslam

 

[OriginofHysteria]

Demon-Finn only lost once on NXT and that was against Samoa Joe. I don't think they'll have the character lose twice in a row.

Balor will probably win.

Also, I personally enjoy the demon gimmick. It's something different. Then again, I enjoyed Kane circa 1997 so.

 

[Colocho]

Yep, Finn Balor is officially the worst thing in the WWE right now.

 

[DMczaf]

 

[truly101]

It would 10 times better if he didn't do so much crawling. You can clearly walk just fine. Just walk.

He could tone down the crawling, but the sock headdress is terrible. He looks like he'd be good for scrubbing a sink full of dishes.

 

[serenewarfare]

Well I guess old loser ass Rollins is gonna win....fuck

I doubt it. Having Finn lose his first match as the demon immediately kills the gimmick. He kind of has to win.

I liked the segment but they have too much money to send him out there with that thing on his head.

 

[Nameless]

STOP SAYING DEMON KING!!!

yeah they're branding machine is cranked up to 1000 for the Demon King. Agreed they should've saved it for SS.

That's the first time I've seen him do this thing. It's weird.

 

[UraMallas]

Seriously, I get why it could have been preferable to keep it until Summerslam, but some of you guys are being over dramatic about how Balor is suddenly done.

I don't see anybody saying the man is done. That entrance is rough, though. This is 2016.

 

[Syder]

STOP SAYING DEMON KING!!!

''THE IRISH LASS KICKER''

 

[ReiGun]

The crawling needs to go. I can take the head dress. The crawling is not prime time. It's corny af.



This is the problem. Entrance needs work.

The crawling could work if he just crawled out instead of all the way to the ring. Or maybe if he crawled out from somewhere else like under the ring.

 

[Jimmy King]

I definitely thought a Corpus Christi crowd would treat that to utter silence. But tonight they've sounded like they are near riotous compared to past RAWs they've hosted.

 

[vatstep]

Cole just said Finn Balor versus Seth Rollins at SummerSlam. I'm confused, Michael. What about THE DEMON KING? Where does he factor in to all of this?

 

[ThreePiMatt]

That's the first time I've seen him do this thing. It's weird.

Don't worry, you haven't seen all of it. I'm sure at SummerSlam he'll do the chainsaw thing.

 

[Chamber]

I doubt it. Having Finn lose his first match as the demon immediately kills the gimmick. He kind of has to win.

He's losing brah.

 

[somedevil]

Welp Bryan had an interview and we see now why they canceled his appearances and is going to making watching Total Bellas kinda of sad:

Having a mental breakdown when forced to retire:
"I had to go out to Florida (to shoot Total Divas) and we're in John Cena's house for four weeks or whatever and there's cameras just on you all the time. I just had this horrible mental breakdown."

Retreating to nature to help cope with his extreme sadness:

"That's what I needed. I needed to get away from all of that and just get out to be by some trees. It's hard for me. I don't do really well in cities, which is crazy given that we're flying in and out of these major cities every week. Brie (Bella, his wife) describes it as anxiety. And she would be accurate. I get this anxiety in cities and places like that. When you grow up in kind of a small town and when you grow up around a lot of green and trees and nature and that sort of thing, sometimes I think it's a little mentally disconcerting to be around this concrete."

I'm not sure I want to watch the Total Bellas episode where Bryan has his breakdown.

 

[Beefy]

WWE badly needs a new monster heel. I never watch NXT, is there any on there?

 

[UberTag]

The problem with them making such a big deal about the Demon is that it makes me worried that he's going to win at SummerSlam. I generally like Finn, but Seth is my Universal Champ.

You think the Demon King will lose in his first main roster match? Yeah, that ain't happening.

 

[DMczaf]

There's another hour left?!

 

[Jimmy King]

Segment was fun and made Finn look like something cool and not like a random dweeb

Interesting analysis.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

That got Hour 2 opener

And the Hour 3 main event is Reigns

Hell, I agree with this call

 

[Sanjuro]

Don't worry, you haven't seen all of it. I'm sure at SummerSlam he'll do the chainsaw thing.

...what?

Like...a Wyatt LED chainsaw?

 

[serenewarfare]

You know how many t-shirts that demon stuff sold just being in NXT? You had better fucking believe they are going to push that shit to the goddamn moon. That's how they do it when they want to get something over.

 

[Fox318]

I'm shocked they did that with Finn.

I don't think Vince even knows how to book anymore.

Espically when compared to HHH on NXT and how NJPW made fucking Kenny Omega look like the best in the world.

 

[TraBuch]

HE'S FUCKING DONE NOW. THEY WASTED IT.

Also, Balor sucks.

 

[Syder]

WWE badly needs a new monster heel. I never watxh NXT, is there any on there?

 

[Bluekaveli]

I'll punch you

It's OK, I'm a vanilla midget too. I'm only 5'8 😣

 

[Cheat Code]

Samoa Joe

 

[Chie Satonaka]

I don't know if that was cool or stupid.

Even if it was cool, it sure wasn't "THIS IS AWESOME" cool, FFS.

 

[serenewarfare]

WWE badly needs a new monster heel. I never watxh NXT, is there any on there?

Samoa Joe is our savior.

 

[truly101]

Well he is from Kurt Cobain's home town so........

 

[Jimmy King]

Samoa Joe

And Asuka.

 

[Wagram]

Balor will likely win that match and that really pisses me off. Owens should be in the title picture by now.
