Finn Balor is arguably one of the biggest stars in NXT history. He had an excellent run at Full Sail, being at the top of the card during many historic moments during the evolution of the brand. Balor was the NXT Champion during the first Takeover show at the Barclays Center, as well as when NXT took over WrestleMania weekend in Dallas. He is still a beloved figure over there and would get a monster reaction at any time if he ever returned there.

Now, in the further evolution of the brand, NXT will begin airing live on the USA Network from next week. This is a pretty big deal and it opens up many possibilities for main roster Superstars to move to the WWE's "third brand", especially with the speculated Draft coming up. Triple H's brand will need some big names for a boost in the early weeks at least, with none being much better than one of the greatest champions in NXT history.

With the ridiculously stop-start nature of his booking on the main roster, a temporary move back to NXT could serve to remind Vince McMahon why he decided to push Balor to the moon when he first joined Monday Night Raw in 2016.
