lol @ people still acting like a Balor heel turn won't work like he wasn't one of the biggest heels in NJPW at one point. I told ya'll months ago they're going to reveal he's the one who attacked Hideo Itami in the parking lot way back at TakeOver whichever. They'll use the angle to put Hideo over in the same way they used Sasha to finally get Becky over after her struggle beginnings in NXT.

To get him as a heel, they have to move away from the body paint stuff, but the problem is, there's a ton of money in that which is the problem they are probably running into during discussions

They're already moving away from that, that's why he got the jacket and they're running with that Balor Club stuff.

He started the body-paint when he was a heel. Painting his face doesn't stop him from being a bad person.

It'll be hard to boo someone that has such a cool look

Regardless, it does seem like they are going in the direction of a balor heel turn

Interested to see who they'd put in the balor club tho, could be a good opportunity for somebody

I've seen Jordan and gable mentioned as possibilities, don't think they fit at all

If they had an imagination and could write some type of Foley meets cactus type explanation for being jn body paint character wise.
It could work,...
Yet, real talk....
You really can't experiment with balor as a heel in nxt.
As the stark contrast out of the paint or the direction change in the paint would be to detrimental.

He has to stay a face, as long as he is in the WWE or nxt.
Making it change up is a bad move.
Balor, Neville, zayn are pretty much pigeon holed as faces in the wwf universe.
Especially since they generally don't write compelling tv content wise.
To ramp up the collective consciousness of the audience in general.

I think they turn him in nxt first cause he has to develop a character and a personality

Balor club gets built in nxt

They don't need balor club but since it is a take on a clique based angle.
The e, will green light it and not do any additional prescient cognitive thinking to their decision.
Eventually ruining balor's draw and eliminating him from prospering.


This company is scared of building stars and it is completely obvious.

With triple h gaining more power within the company, it ain't safe for these other feds. He's gonna stack that nxt roster up with their top talent. Roh`s roster is looking slim and tna looks like it might be over for good. I think five years from now it'll be even more lopsided on the wrestling market. :upsetfavre:

I know he didn't but anyone, whether him or JBL, are lame for being involved in that carny shyt.
