Re: Does Finlay Deserve a Title Push?
Yes, I think Finlay deserves a title of some sort. I had the privelege of seeing him wrestle Matt Hardy live, at SmackDown last June. He's a hell of a wrestler who displays both technical and charismatic prowess and has a good gig going for him as the fighting Irishman. (not so much with the Hornswaggle thing, imo although it was a great way to give him a push as a face with the "great protector" gig and whatnot.)
The question is which title should he get? The United States title would be a no-brainer and a Matt Hardy/Finlay feud would be excellent for both of them. A world title might be a bit much, at least in the WWE's current state with it's roster situation, ratings, and writer/storyline problems. I would, however, love to see him wear that belt at some point before he retires. (as a face) I couldn't really see him tag-teaming with anyone on the current SmackDown roster though. (with the exception of Hornswaggle, but please... just no.)
