Finn Balor Weighs In On Not Being The Demon At This Year's WRESTLEMANIA

Former WWE Universal Champion Finn Balor didn't adopt his Demon persona at WrestleMania and it's been a while since we've seen that on TV. Here, the leader of the Balor Club addresses what's happening.

Finn Balor's Demon persona hasn't been seen for a while now and it's a gimmick that WWE has to use sparingly because the former Universal Champion has never lost a match while painted up. That's probably why we didn't see the Demon at WrestleMania (Seth Rollins walked out with the Intercontinental Championship instead) and now Balor has weighed in on why exactly that happened. 

"A lot of people maybe thought going into WrestleMania, ‘Well, if Finn’s not gonna be the Demon, it’s gonna suck. I think what we did at WrestleMania is a lot more important than any Demon could have been," he said referencing the fact that he instead appeared on stage with members of the LGBT community. So, what was it that led to him appearing with them at the show? 
 
"I feel like—not that they were excluded, but sometimes they felt like they weren’t included," Balor explains. "That’s something I felt a responsibility for, to use the platform that I have for good and to help maybe a small amount of people for the right reasons." It's hard to fault that line of thinking but you have to hope the Demon makes a reappearance in WWE down the line...
