10 Superstars That WWE Need To Push In 2017
3. Finn Balor
You might think this is a stupid pick because it's obvious that WWE are high on Balor (merch sales talk, folks!) and he had seemingly been anointed as the man to lead the Red Brand prior to his injury, but this is WWE here, and we can't take anything for granted when it comes to Stating The God Damn Obvious. Finn Balor needs to be put right back in the title hunt as soon as he comes back, and it's a no-brainer that he should be the man to dethrone Kevin Owens at Wrestlemania. The story's there. Don't let us down, WWE.
Booking Idea: If he's ready to go, Finn should win the Royal Rumble match and beat Owens at Mania. Simple. If he's not ready, save his big return for Mania for a decent opponent, then put him in the title hunt heading into Summerslam season. It's unlikely Owens will still have the title by then, but it doesn't matter - The Demon needs to rock that red strap by year's end.
