I think Bryan (injured... if he was ever considered) and Reigns (not popular enough) are done. There's no doubt the WWE will look for a new prospect. I think we should support Finn Balor and let our voice be heard so he is the chosen one.
In fact I think there's a big chance the WWE could agree with the idea. He has the look, he is getting very popular, his mic skills are good and his match skills are great. His body paint would be an awesome opportunity of marketing. He could change his designs every half a year and debut a new t-shirt based on it.
Re: Let's make Finn Balor the new face of the WWE!
Hahaha sure so much exposure of Seth Rollins being the guy that promos more on WWE than any other talent just fucked some brains and made them lower their standard of what a good mic worker is and now someone like Balor it's considered to be good at promos? the delusion just hit a new low on this place.
Balor is atrocious on the mic. He's worse than Rollins. No fucking thank you, I'm done with guys who can't talk. Balor needs to take his obnoxious Boogeyman/Jeff Hardy hybrid act back to Japan.
Nowhere near enough character depth, no mic skills besides the inring and the gimmick entrance there isn't much to Finn he hasn't even been impressive as NXT's number 1 guy imo. I'll pass on that every single time.
EDIT: And honestly his entrance is already worn out his welcome it was cool the first time now it's just like hurry up and get to the ring I don't care.
Re: Let's make Finn Balor the new face of the WWE!
I'm still not all that impressed with Finn.
Once you get past the entrance and face paint, his character is pretty mediocre. He's above average in the ring, but his lack of character depth doesn't really give me much of a reason to care about the matches.

:woah :woah
Other than the paint and entrance he is the Irish Hideo Itami. He lacks character depth and I really don't enjoy his mic work to be honest.

Will be a monster star on the main roster. Kids are going to eat up the entrance and the demon look. I have no doubt Vince and Hunter have huge plans for him.

WWE, or Vince more specifically, definitely won't agree. He doesn't have "the look" because he's too small by Vince's standards. Just because he has a 6-pack, doesn't mean he has "the look". Same reason Paul Roma was never a star in WWF. By physique you think to yourself this guy looks like a big muscular guy, but he was actually quite small. Whether we like it or not, a 190lb guy is never going to be Vince's guy. His mic skills are shit and he has an accent, so that's another double negative for him in Vince's eyes.
His in-ring skills are good, but since when does Vince care who the best indy wrestler is? The first thing Vince would do with him is put him in a feud with a 7-foot guy like Kane to expose how small he is. That's just how Vince works, he can't help himself. Same reason he thought, "hey let's put Tazz in a feud with Albert" shortly after his debut to expose him as an ECW midget (I'm saying this from Vince's POV).
Not trying to hate on Balor, would love him to be a big star, but just saying from reality POV of how Vince has thought of wrestling for the past 30+ years. The best thing for him would be to win the IC title and try to make that belt mean something again as a great mid-card title.
