I do hope something comes from this. But I seriously cannot see the "Balor Club" happening on RAW. Finn is the face of NXT, and one of the most over babyfaces WWE have at the moment. Bringing him up as a heel to align with 2 more heels to feud with AJ would undo over 15 months of hard development work they've put into Finn. Alternatively, you bring up Finn and turn AJ heel, that will undo all the hard work they've done in short time positioning AJ as a main event babyface. If the "Balor Club" doesn't happen, fans need to take this into account before they complain about it. Id sooner we didn't have a BC Rip off, and instead we got AJ and Finn as 2 solo babyfaces. So that when they do eventually clash, the match between AJ and Balor can be built around 2 talented guys with similar backgrounds, battling to see who's the better man.. Instead of basing the feud around a novelty quick fix such as a Bullet Club re-run which would contradict their characters, and have a short shelf life. It's all common sense really. Make 2 stars instead of using one to highlight the other. Pretty sure this will lead to Finn/Styles vs Anderson/Gallows, which I think down the line will morph into Ambrose/Rollins/Styles/Balor v. Anderson/Gallows/Reigns/HHH.

From a booking standpoint, none of it would make any sense at all. For Finn to debut and turn heel, only to switch back to face to eventually team with the guy who he "targetted" on his debut, against the guys he aligned with..? And then somehow, get the Shield involved? It ain't happening. Everyone needs to stop getting so overexcited. You'll only go and get your hopes up again.

It is pretty clear (atleast in my eyes) that Anderson/Gallows will be aligning with Reigns at the Payback PPV. The next night they reveal the Authority is behind all of this and you have HHH/Reigns/Gallows/Anderson all aligned together to form the new authority. Feuding with this new Authority is Styles/Balor/Ambrose/Rollins. It's not hard to put together.

Finn has been an excellent NXT champion. I'm happy for him if this means he'll be debuting on RAW soon.
Joe has been amazing since debuting in NXT. He deserves this and I'm happy to have him not only be part of NXT, but to now represent it as champion.

If Finn is indeed hurt, that really sucks. I am hoping he is just on his way up to join the bullet club

I'm excited for this, awesome for Joe. As for Finn on the main roster, and whatever club activities are about to ensue, please WWE creative do not this up.

Am I the only one who read the ref threw up the "X" sign? And a random title change? Seems like Finn could be legit hurt...

Being reported on WWE.com too. How often do titles change at house shows? I remember Primo and Epico won the Tag Titles at a house show against Air Boom a few years back.

Apparently Finn walked out of the event last night fine. Even yelling to the fans in the parking lot, See you Monday.

They're not gonna make an instant decision to change the title based on an injury in ring without knowing how serious it is. They have done it before. Lita was supposed to defend at NYR in Jan of 2005 but when she got injured Trish and her switched it up since they didn't want the belt to get vacated (and honestly Trish was the best person to win it at that time anyways). Other than that Idk if they have done any others because usually when someone is injured they just have their opponent get counted out or DQ'd if they don't outright stop the match.

It is pretty clear (atleast in my eyes) that Anderson/Gallows will be aligning with Reigns at the Payback PPV. The next night they reveal the Authority is behind all of this and you have HHH/Reigns/Gallows/Anderson all aligned together to form the new authority. Feuding with this new Authority is Styles/Balor/Ambrose/Rollins. It's not hard to put together. If that's what's clear in your eyes, you need glasses son. I like how people assume that just because Roman acknowledges the boo's (just like Cena did for 10 years), he's gunna throw away all of the character traits that have been installed into him over the past 2 years and turn heel... (just like fans thought would eventually happen to Cena once he began to acknowledge the boo's, this continued for 10 years as thus far, no Cena heel turn.) For fantasy booking, that's awful. It's apparently "clear" you say? Get ready for some disappointment bro. Gang warfare between teams who hated each other last month? That sounds like 2 weeks worth of TNA Impact, not 6 weeks worth of RAW. AJ is being positioned at the top. Finn is being prepared for a monster push when he's eventually brought up. Bringing them together immediately is a sure fire way to send them both into midcard mediocrity together within 2 months, once Cena/Brock/Orton/Rollins return to join Roman, Triple H and Ambrose at the top of the card. Why the hell do people want that?! Would you not prefer AJ OR Balor to be amongst those solo main eventers instead? While the other is slowly built towards that level? Further proof that people think they know what they want from WWE, but in turn, they don't.
