I've been waiting to upload this one for a while. Finn Balor reinvented himself and seemed to be on the run of his career, it's looked back at fondly for good reason. What did you think of the Prince?

@DanielDeLeon69 Жыл бұрын

I think Finn Balor Is Great he's best in the ring and I can appreciate what he's doing right now with The Judgement Day!!!😎

@Kalel2.0 Жыл бұрын

I loved the character. And his In ring ability improved overnight he was allowed to have freedom to be himself and it worked the crowd just couldn't hate him as a badness Heel so he became more of a tweener. I personally feel that's how he should be booked on the Main Roster after Judgement Day splits.

Finn is currently finding out how to adapt his Judgment Day character. He has the trolling of the OG Prince devitt when he was a heel in NJPW. I saw this one video of Finn wearing boxing gloves before a match starts at NJPW, just to troll his opponent😂😂then the red took off his gloves. He's in his humorous heel era, which I don't mind. He can be a serious heel or tough guy as shown in NXT 2019. That version of The Prince is probably hidden unless a storyline gets serious.

Finn Balor as the Prince in NXT from 2019-2021 had an incredible run. His feud with Gargano, that banger match at Super Tuesday, his series of matches with Kyle O'Reilly over the NXT Championship, and his match with Karrion Kross were all amazing and were some of the last great runs in Black and Gold NXT. He was just operating on a whole different level.

Finn Balor's run in NXT from 2019-2021 is why NXT should be an official third brand so more superstars on Raw & SmackDown who aren't being used properly can go back to Florida and have fresher feuds, storylines, and matches.

@savagelogic8674 Жыл бұрын

Yep, as do I. It’s one of the few things I liked about early WWECW, and NXT when it first got on live tv. It worked towards making new stars, but also made it a viable third brand for veterans with it’s top titles being respected as world championships (Edge teasing to go for Finn’s title, and Charlotte using her Rumble win to win it at Mania). But WWE seems very inconsistent about it. They say they want NXT to be a full developmental brand, yet still have “main roster” stars winning their titles, and have it on NATIONAL TELEVISION to be put under the same scrutiny as Raw and SD. Let’s not forget when they teased Austin Theory cashing in on Bron Breakker lol. It seems like whenever the company wants NXT to commit to one concept (third brand or developmental brand), they do things to contradict that vision. B&G tried to be a third brand with having them in Survivor Series and fully making the NXT title a world championship, but still had “call-ups” without being able to trade their stars for someone from the other brands. Now NXT wants to be developmental again, but still have main roster stars winning their belts, Solo going as far as to bring the NA championship to SD and defending it their for a bit, or as we saw just from this week A FORMER WWE CHAMPION challenging for the NXT title 💀.

@RomaroBrandon Жыл бұрын

@@savagelogic8674 Win or lose I would have so happy if Austin Theory cashed in on Bron Breakker. But no Triple H made the dumbass decision to have him cash in on Seth Rollins during an open challenge for the US title, and what's worst is that he lost but then won it a few weeks later.

This is the Finn I wanna see on the main roster. When he was the Prince it's like his passion came back again. He was out here having banger matches with Gargano,Thatcher,Dunne,Cole hell he got a pretty good match out of Kross. The character work was fantastic felt so much like Prince Devitt in his NJPW days. Just sad Vince lowered him back to that smiling generic babyface after that dumb finish in his match with Roman. His second run was arguably better than first

Hello WrestlingsPremier remember me it's Marvin first of all happy new year 2023 and second of all thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏for making what i consider one of your best videos along so many others Finn Balor's second NXT run from 2019-2021 was absolutely amazing i just loved how he reinvented himself bringing back "the prince" gimmick revitalized him, i enjoyed the intensity in his matches, the more serious and darker tone shift as well as his ruthlessness suited him perfectly, what i like the most about his character was the menacing promos he would make in that dark room and the overall vibe and aura around them. However following NXT takeover Portland when he fought Johnny Gargano, he was supposed to fight Walter and that left me a bit confused was Finn still supposed to be a full on heel ? or was he becoming an anti-hero ? because for the rest of his 2nd run throughout 2020 to 2021 he fought against both heels and faces alike so what would you say ? was Finn Balor still a full on heel ? a cool heel maybe ? or a tweener ? I'm looking forward to hearing from you, once again happy new year 2023 this was a really cool vid 😎👍👍

He was what made NXT feel like the third brand it was clearly trying to be at the time, and the NXT championship feel like a viable world title. I still remember when they teased Edge going after it. Yeah we knew it wasn’t going to happen, but it felt believable with Finn being the champion at the time, and his title defenses against guys like Dunn, O’Reilly, and Kross were hard hitting classics.

He is someone who despite his size looks credible and serious. He is definitely better when he is an egoistic confident prideful tweener, his mic work, character work, personality peaked during his second run. Heel Finn Balor in Judgement Day has personality of cabbage and no charisma, is very cheesy. WWE have one opportunity that is Clash of Castles after Damien Priest losses the title they can make Balor turn heel on Damein Priest.

@Thathorrorguy12FU Жыл бұрын

I like what they are doing with Balor right now with The Judgement Day. He does much better as a heal. I just don't understand why they aren't booked just a bit stronger than they should be. I understand that Dominic is basically just breaking in for the most part, and he's now getting a little better with the promos and his character. But, Balor one of the best wrestlers on the planet, with the only exception being his height, and Priest who is the full package, he can promo, he's a pretty big guy, then they have quite possibly the best female wrestler in the business as well. They should be booked stronger.
