The purpose of NXT is supposed to be developing talent, but in the case of Finn Balor, he's being held back by the brand. Sure, he's the champion, but this is a man good enough to be a US or IC champion on the main brand. He's as accomplished as they come in the ring, and his character is also over. He's more than ready for the main roster. It is now at the point where WWE are hurting his progression. He's 34 years old and has been on the NXT roster for over a year. When he first signed, he was told that he'd be on Raw within a short period of time, but it is now looking like he'll be an NXT guy until at least 2016. And even though Samoa Joe has only been on NXT for a few months, there's a feeling that he should be on WWE's main roster. What world do we live in where Braun Strowman bypasses NXT and goes straight to a rumoured Raw feud with The Undertaker, but Samoa Joe is hidden away on small shows in NXT?
