I time stamp it to when he starts talking about Finn
He pretty much feels that Finn Balor & The Demon King both wrestle the same and he doesn't do anything different between the two. That he should leave the head gear on. That is the demon king a good gimmick for him with someone his size

vince feels balor is the same guy, that he doesnt transform at all. other dude that isnt matt morgan feels that finn wrestles the same.
matt morgan notices slight differences in his moveset. that its not as easy for finn because he didnt have a build like warrior or taker. he feels that the character doesnt exactly fit finn. that he needs something to build suspension of disbelief. he isnt big enough to no sell


i kinda liked the point that russo brought up on the music. maybe finn should have 2 seperate entrance themes for regular finn and the demon.

He doesn't need to no sell. There's WAY too much of that these days with the finisher spams but the Demon character really could borrow from the Great Muta and Jake Roberts in terms of how it moves, unorthodox and very sudden/deliberate when it attacks.
I feel like he could take pages from mutas play

He should stop wearing the headgear altogether.
