WWE News: New role for Finn Balor- Never in my wildest dream I dreamt that Finn Balor would be used as a jobber or a scapegoat just to push other talents, but it seems like this is what is happening, and this is what will happen with the former Universal Champion going forward.
WWE News: Vince McMahon has decided a new role for Finn Balor, which may not please his fans. Check what role it is
Several reports suggest that Vince McMahon has given up on Finn Balor’s push, and now the Universal Champion will be used as a stepping stone for the young talent to shine. A glimpse of this was seen last week on Monday Night Raw, where the first-ever Universal Champion lost to Austin Theory and then got humiliated once the match was over. Balor’s fans may not like the treatment he is receiving and going to receive moving forward, but as of now, this is what it is.

“Yea, Finn was moved into the spot that Jeff Hardy had. He is just there now to help get over the younger guys.”
The report further suggested that there were plans to make Balor heel, but it never got the steam it had to. “There was a pitch to make him heel, but that was weeks ago, and I haven’t heard much about it since then.”

WWE News: Vince never saw Balor more than just a mid-card guy
One worrying report also suggests that Chairman Vince McMahon never saw the main event guy in Finn Balor. However, if Paul Heyman was back as the Executive Director of Monday Night Raw, Finn would have pushed him to the moon.
“Vince never saw Finn as more than just a mid-card guy. Heyman would have pushed him to the moon but Vince just never saw it.”
This news is nothing but a nightmare for Finn Balor fans. However, this is how it is going to be for now, at least till Balor and Heyman don’t get on the same show.
