Replace Daniel Bryan and Big Cass with Finn Bálor and Baron Corbin and you have this sh*thouse of a feud that did nobody involved any favours. Lord only knows how many times people tuning into Raw could be expected to sit through Finn smiling and Corbin calling him tiny before they lost their damn minds.

Maybe this was part of some elaborate experiment to find out.

Admittedly, seeing Bálor as the 'Demon' at SummerSlam in a quick squash was fun, but fun was few and far between in the rivalry. Bully Baron (if only that had been his NXT name) didn't come across as menacing enough, was put in his place by Finn's alter ego and yet still continued to berate him for his smaller physical size as 'Constable' of Raw.

It wasn't only matches at Extreme Rules and SummerSlam the kept this one ticking, it was the constant need to put them in boring backstage promo segments too. It'll take more than the heel offering a playhouse to the babyface for him to get sympathy.
