agreed. in fact i don't even know why they have to mention the shoulder injury at all.

everyone knows wrestling is a show. even if the smart fans are aware that finn balor (the man) is taking time off because of an injury, shouldn't mean that finn balor (the character) has to suffer the same consequences. i mean what kind of "wrestling champion" takes time off because his shoulder hurts?

there are a million other better, more creative reasons why the demon king needed to vacate the title. announcing to the world that he's too hurt to continue does him absolutely no favors.

He dislocated it and needs surgery.

why bother running stone cold over with a car?

why not just have him out on raw and tell the world he's leaving because his neck hurts?

Because the whole point is to show how much a badass Finn is for popping his shoulder into place and finishing the match.

Whats the smallest guy on the roster doing powerbombing people anyway.

He's not close to the smallest guy on the roster.

I didnt say he was.

When you write so much stupid shyt that you lose track of all the stupid shyt you just wrote...

Huge missed opportunity to put over the Demon (King) really. Should've just turned into an angle where the Demon is nigh invincible, popping its own joints back into place and assuring victory, and turning back into human hit Finn with all the residue pain and hurt.

- Before Finn Balor's injury, the original plan was for Balor to defend the new Universal title against Kevin Owens at the Clash of Champions PPV on September 25. At that event, the finish would have led to a Balor vs. Owens vs. Chris Jericho triple threat match at the 10/30 PPV in Boston.

- Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns were both expected to be kept out of the title picture for the next few months but due to Balor's injury, they are likely back in. For Reigns, WWE's idea was to keep him in a storyline with Rusev with the hope that this new vision would go over with the fans.

Rollins/Reigns at Clash of Champions, then?

I hope Owens wins.
