WWE's plans for Finn Balor's Demon King persona
On this week's WWE RAW Preview on Sportskeeda, answering a fan's questions, Tom Colohue spoke about WWE's plans for The Demon King.
"There are no plans to ever see the Demon King again in the WWE. No plans at all to have it in NXT. Finn Balor doesn't want the Demon King. He felt it was a bad thing to have on the main roster when he got there. So he is rebuilding himself a little bit. There maybe times when he may choose to go back to the Demon King but that's being left up to him. But at the moment, no plans for Demon King."
The Demon King became almost became a mainstay for WWE SummerSlam. If Finn Balor decides never to use the gimmick again, many WWE fans will be disappointed.
