WWE Extreme Rules 2021: 10 Nightmares That Could Come True
3. Finn Bálor’s ‘Demon’ Is Ruined Forever
Finn Bálor's 'Demon' alter ego could best be described as a useful tool that's handily dusted off no more than twice per year. His menacing crawl and dramatic body paints up the ante for upcoming matches, and this tussle with Roman Reigns on Sunday night is no different.
The unfortunate truth though, whether WWE wants to admit it or not, is that they're gonna have to sacrifice the 'Demon' to their 'Tribal Chief'. Bálor cannot be the guy who beats Roman, especially not before Reigns tangles with Brock Lesnar in Saudi Arabia and then possibly/hopefully The Rock come WrestleMania 38 season.
They have to be very careful with this, because one wrong step could destroy Finn's 'Demon' forever. He's supposed to be this levelled-up extension of Bálor, so he can't go down with a whimper to Reigns. Extreme Rules has to be the fight of Roman's life, otherwise the 'Demon' is cooked.
Remember that point if Roman squishes him flat then WWE try to sell Finn as a threat next year.
