10 superstars who deserve to be WWE Universal Champion more than Brock Lesnar

#5. Finn Balor

Speaking of mishandled talent; You can tell with just a glance that Finn Balor is a supreme athlete. Blessed with strength, agility, and speed, he was possibly the most popular NXT champion in history. Then he came up to the main roster and has not fared as well.

Finn actually was the first ever Universal champion but suffered a shoulder injury after a botched powerbomb by Seth Rollins. Finn has flirted with the main event picture since but largely seems to be relegated to the mid-card.

The other aspect that has been mishandled about Finn is his character. Is he a heel or a face? He's jumped over the fence so many times fans are confused. Is he the invincible Demon King, an heir to the throne left vacant by Undertaker, or is the inclusive rainbow warrior who rarely trots out the makeup anymore?

One thing that is for sure about Balor; He is a much more deserving Universal Champion than Brock Lesnar.
