At SummerSlam, World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins beat Finn Balor for the second time in a row at a PLE. The event was the perfect opportunity to put the title on The Judgement Day leader, but it's apparent their feud has reached its end. 

During last Monday's episode of RAW, Shinsuke Nakamura turned heel by attacking Rollins, setting the stage for them to likely clash at Payback next month. 

Where that leaves Balor remains to be seen, but he's clearly not getting a title reign, and there's a lot of tension within his faction which is bound to be a focal point of the Monday night show in the weeks and months ahead. 

However, WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle believes Balor would be right to leave the company if something doesn't change soon in terms of how he's booked. 

"Well, you know what? It would've been nice if they would've given him [Balor] this world title," the Olympic Gold Medallist said on The Kurt Angle Show. "You know, I think he's really over, incredibly athletic. He has a lot of charisma."

"This kid, you know, if WWE doesn't end up doing something with him, that's dramatic, I wouldn't blame him if he went off and went somewhere else. I don't wanna see him do that because I love the WWE, and I think he's a good fit for them, but they need to start putting this kid over. He deserves it," Angle added. "They're over [Judgment Day]. They're still over without Edge."

Rumour has it WWE views The Judgement Day storyline as having as much potential as the one with Roman Reigns and The Bloodline, so there's a good Balor will remain in the main event spotlight, even if it is without the World Heavyweight Championship around his waist.

Do you think WWE is handling Balor poorly? Let us know in the comments section below.

Having Rollins win the title initially made sense (as much as I would have liked to have seen AJ get the win), he is a big star and draw for the WWE.
However he doesn't "need" the title to go over, he has had a match every year at Wrestlemania since 2013 with one exception being 2016.
Finn needs a decent run with the title, seeing as the last time he won it he was forced to vacate it due to injury.
