New Era off to a hot start.

I always hoped Finn would just debut at the top of the card. He is. He's going to be the first WWE Universal Champion, which clearly trumps the f*** out of the World belt. Who wants a WORLD title when you can be CHAMPION OF THE UNIVERSE?!


Who's ready for this?! Are any of us TRULY ready? lol

That dude looked like a STAR from the second he showed up on camera last night.
Yeah, and his first match was excellent, I understand he isn't everyones cup of tea and his move set isn't as diverse, but hes a young kid for fucksake. He will be here for a long time hopefully and he will be great, at the end of the day, I see him as being the champ for a long time at some point, and multiple champion.

Slow your horses people. Let's not get ahead of ourselves here.

The guy already got put over huge. But winning the belt on his first try? They are not THAT high on him.

He's 35. A year younger than Randy Orton and with over a decade of experience.

Not exactly a "young kid"

Vince probably is because Finn is Irish and the fans love him :vince3:

If we are using the Vince stereotypes Balor is about a foot and a half too short and 100 lbs too light to be a top star.

Gary Strydom he is not

Rollins is winning. No way they're going to upstage their current top star for a future top-star. He will be involved in the title scene, in one way or another, for the rest of the year, and he might even win the title. But he isn't winning the title on his first try, at the second biggest show of the year against RAW's biggest star.

Eh never say never. I could see them doing it just because alot of people are expecting a rollins win since he was the #1 pick. Wouldn't that truly be a shock?

I've never heard of this guy until last night, but i'm pretty sure he'll be fed to Rollins and he'll take control of RAW.

This is the New Era. Finn Balor becoming the first ever WWE Universal Champion right after The Shield had their little swan song main event program is exactly what's on the menu.

You same guys saying that shit won't happen probably would've been sitting there saying he wouldn't win the Fatal 4 Way or go CLEAN over Roman Reigns in the same night. He did it though. Finn is the centerpiece of Raw now, and it's gonna be that way for a long time. Strap in.

I think him winning the title on his first main roster PPV would be huge, and too good to be true.

But, Rollins is going to win, I reckon. He may not win clean as a sheet, but he'll win.

The only way I can see Finn winning is if they do a double turn, with Gallows and Anderson helping Finn, thus forming the long-awaited Bálor Club and Rollins is finally turned into a babyface. But, we'll see.

You are hyping Finn up way too much. It's one thing being the center piece of NXT, and a completely different thing to be the center piece of RAW.

And majority of the fans clamoring for Finn to win the belt are hypocrites considering majority of them are the same fans that claim that Roman got pushed too fast.

Giving Finn the belt this quick would be way too fast.
