A lot of people are happy that we will see Demon Balor at WrestleMania.

But a lot of them are mad that they didn't see him against Brock Lesnar this year at Royal Rumble.

Truly I am glad that we are finally seeing The Demon this year.

But it also makes me wish that they would have saved Lesnar vs Demon Balor for Summer Slam.

Do you think it sucks that The Demon wasn't used against Lesnar, but is being used against Lashley?

I think the issue with booking his Demon alter-ego against Brock is that is meant to be something that is hard to beat and with the Demon only being used a handful of times on the main roster, they would want to protect it. Would it have made sense in kayfabe to use it against Brock? Absolutely. But it would have to take a loss and I think WWE wishes to avoid that much like he wants to avoid bad PR about its wrestlers not having enough insurance.

Yeah but the Demon Lost to AJ Styles at a TLC PPV so the Demon can't be inevitable forever....

But I do see what you mean.it has an Image to keep, and Loses don't help at all.

I just want to see demon Balor in more big name matches and World Title Matches.

The Demon beat AJ at TLC. I remember because the Coupe De Grace at the end made AJ gasp with how stiff it was. Plus the only loss the alter ego had was NXT Takeover: The End, where it lost a cage match to Samoa Joe, but on the main roster it is undefeated.

Why would you want Demon Balor to face Brock when you know Brock will win? Demon Balor vs Bray or even Undertaker would have been better, honestly.

He lost in NJPW as well as when he was the demon.

That was before the WWE went and #trademarked the Demon #trademarked and was seen as this mythical alter ego.

And Demon vs Bray happened at Summerslam two years back... Then TLC it was supossed to be...

THE PUMPKIN DEMON

vs

Bray Wyatt in drag.

Still counts.

Eh, I forget what happened in WWE last year of the year before because of how overwashed it is. Still, it was better used there or even at TLC, if that match happened, than it would have been against Brock.

Because I even if He lose he will still pull off a winning performance. But if It hurts the Demons image then now I don't want him to Lose to Lesnar or anyone else

and Yes, Demon Balor vs Undertaker would be better. but Vince Mcmahon is an asshole when it comes to giving us our Dream Matches.

Also the match between him and Taker seems kinda bleak due to this IC Title match at WrestleMania.

The Main Event Name could have been build as "25-2 or Passing of The Torch"

Not really Balor would be doing all the work while Brock just stands there a knot on a log and then Finn would have to sell everything Brock does tenfold. Balor would be even more damaged than what he is right now.

Eh, pretty much.

I understand that. I wasn't saying that he should have the match this Wrestlemania, but one of the previous ones. If anything Finn will win the belt and then lose it at Backlash if the truth is to be told because they have watered down Finn so much it isn't funny.

Yeah I see agree on that too.

And you're right about that; Because I hated when I said it before but I'll say it again....

To be Honest WM 32 was Taker's last 5 Star Mania Match.

A lot of NXT guy have been debuting before Mania lately they could have had Balor debut at the 2016 Royal Rumble

32 was not that great of a match. It was as slow as a turtle and the only highlight was SHANE JUMPS OFF ANOTHER HIGH THING!
