The Demon King?

 

[Keyser Soze]

The whole logic of why Balor adopts that persona is kinda broken now and I dont like that. I dont think it is as ruinous as most though. But they have to stop saying "Demon King" RIGHT FUCKING NOW. They could simply just comment he is adopting a demonic persona or something. Find a dictionary and say all the synonyms of "Demonic " during his entrance if you must. Not everything has to have a nickname or a trademark.

 

[TheStruggler]

if thats you I dare you to turn around and say "HEY PHIL!!!"

 

[Sanjuro]

 

[MG310]

Can they at least get demon Finn one of those cool Brood elevators?

 

[Chamber]

There's another hour left?!

For real, I might draft might myself exclusively to the Smackdown brand.

 

[ReiGun]

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

Samoa Joe, who pretty much has one foot in the main roster at this point.

 

[Zach]

And Asuka.

I like you, Jimmy King.

 

[TraBuch]

Samoa Joe is so good, Roode would also immediately be a top heel in WWE.

 

[Nameless]

Golddust still being employed in 2016 makes me happy for some reason.

 

[Fox318]

And the brood music

 

[serenewarfare]

I think you guys a vastly overestimating how much it matters that he showed up as the demon here as opposed to saving it for Sunday. The paint is a hype tool, so it being used as such is fine.

 

[ramoisdead]

I really The Club doctors' theme.

I hope I see more Ringpostitis in this match.

 

[TheStruggler]

Samoa Joe, However I feel they could have done this with Owens as well

 

[TimeEffect]

This theme is SO GOOD

 

[ThreePiMatt]

...what?

Like...a Wyatt LED chainsaw?

He kind of just prances around swinging this chainsaw with no teeth on it around for a bit.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

The Brood and the Kane still the GOAT red demon entrances

 

[Syder]

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.

He wasn't in Demon paint for the loss to Joe, was he? I seriously think WWE are going to make 'The Demon King' Finn's plot armour. They'll be able write off any losses he gets when he's not painted up.

 

[UberTag]

You know damn well they'll book Samoa Joe the same way they've booked Bray Wyatt if he ever so much as sniffs the main roster.

 

[truly101]

And the brood music

And let Gangrel be his manager

 

[Beefy]

I watched him a few times on TNA and he was great. What percentage would you give me on WWE fucking it up?

 

[Kusagari]

They boxed themselves into a corner by having Balor's first feud instantly be a world title match.

Now he either wins the title or loses and the DEMON KING has zero mystique because he lost his first main roster match.

 

[Cheat Code]

He kind of just prances around swinging this chainsaw with no teeth on it around for a bit.

It's a bit like Chainsaw Charlie with worse headwear.

 

[Chamber]

Samoa Joe is so good, Roode would also immediately be a top heel in WWE.

I mean, I love Bobby Roo but dude is IC/US title level on the main roster. I don't see him getting a huge push at all.

 

[Valentus]

And Asuka.

And Vince will call her "The Demon Queen" and GAF will hate her too.

 

[serenewarfare]

The whole logic of why Balor adopts that persona is kinda broken now and I dont like that. I dont think it is as ruinous as most though. But they have to stop saying "Demon King" RIGHT FUCKING NOW. They could simply just comment he is adopting a demonic persona or something. Find a dictionary and say all the synonyms of "Demoic" during his entrance. Not everything has to have a nickname or a trademark.

When they see as much merchandise potential as they do here, they are going to name it and trademark it. They'd be kind of dumb not to. Now whether they should ram it into the ground is another thing (they shouldn't, but that's what they do).

 

[Fox318]

With every Finn t-shirt you get a DVD set of Buffy and Angel episodes.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

The Club's theme grew on me

 

[TheStruggler]

yep should have left the whole demon king out of it and have him lose, least buy him some time and it would have further built up the demon aspect to his character

 

[OriginofHysteria]

He wasn't in Demon paint for the loss to Joe, was he? I seriously think WWE are going to make 'The Demon King' Finn's plot armour. They'll be able write off any losses he gets when he's not painted up.

He was. he was in black and white paint I think, similar to Venom, rather than the red he usually wears.

 

[Bluekaveli]

It's that you?

 

[Syder]

I watched him a few times on TNA and he was great. What percentage would you give me on WWE fucking it up?

If they put him on RAW in a feud with Lesnar that's fucking money. Joe and KO are the only people I can believe beating Lesnar and who actually deserve rub too.

So expect to see him feuding with Jericho next year.

 

[DMczaf]

"Leave it to you Saxton to reference a show that no one over the age of 20 has seen!"

...wait, wouldn't people over the age of 20 seen it?

 

[Sanjuro]

It's a bit like Chainsaw Charlie with worse headwear.

...so he is basically this.

 

[serenewarfare]

I watched him a few times on TNA and he was great. What percentage would you give me on WWE fucking it up?

Well I mean he has "Samoa" in his name so he already has a leg up on pretty much everyone else.

 

[Brian_FETO]

The Club's theme grew on me

I think it's one of the best WWE themes at the moment

 

[ramoisdead]

TIGER KNEE by Xavier.

 

[ReiGun]

And Vince will call her "The Demon Queen" and GAF will hate her too.

Asuka on the main roster drinking game: Take a shot every time you hear "The Empress of Tomorrow"

*everyone gets totally wasted after one match*

The Club's theme grew on me

Shit's dope.

 

[Fox318]

Samoa Joe is gonna get pushed down the card by Vince as soon as he is called up.

This fucking company man.

They need a clean house to upper management so badly.

 

[ThreePiMatt]

I like a good Goldust power slam.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Stop stealing my booking ideas.

Nah brutha it's far game. I'm you. Sad but true.

 

[Sanjuro]

The New Day almost anal raped a guy in the ring. They used HHH sledgehammer properties.

 

[Ultratech]

Huh, a trombone is a dangerous weapon.

 

[Jimmy King]

I like you, Jimmy King.

 

[Bluekaveli]

This is worse than Mideon's eye

 

[UberTag]

Samoa Joe is gonna get pushed down the card by Vince as soon as he is called up.

This fucking company man.

They need a clean house to upper management so badly.

Not happening until Vince is dead. Enjoy seeing Samoa Joe losing his initial feuds against Braun Strowman and Big Cass.

 

[OriginofHysteria]

Huh, a trombone is a dangerous weapon.

Anything to your nuts is a dangerous weapon man.
