You're not alone. The IWC seems to think anyone who has solid/stand out ring skills deserves a push, proven evident with how many Benjamin, Haas and Gregory Helms marks there are. All 3 of them are incredibly generic and don't have much of a character to get them anywhere above the mid card. I'm not saying being a great wrestler is a bad thing, but in the WWE you need much much more than that.
Finlay is only over because the midget he protects. The fans don't pay to see Finlay, they pay to see Hornswaggle and I'd be willing to bet that if Hornswaggle stopped coming out with Finlay for at least a month, his reactions would weaken. As long as he's having useless little matches with the likes of Matt Striker it's all good. He's incredibly boring to get anywhere above that.
