Negative: Moving Finn Balor out of the title picture immediately

While most fans were probably happy that Finn Balor got a chance at the title he never lost the night after Summerslam, it seems like the move was a carefully crafted plan by WWE to knock Balor off his perch and make sure he had no legitimate claim to the title. Unfortunately for Balor, they did just that by having Reigns beat him clean in the closing contest of the night.
With that being said, WWE drove the point home by having Balor lose to straight contests on Monday Night Raw, before finally letting him get his momentum back in a match against Elias. In the end, WWE doing this to Balor at the same time that Reigns is champion just seems to be a way to eliminate support for Balor and make him irrelevant on Raw.

Why else would they put him against Elias in the main event of the evening? Sure, the match was a way to give Balor some of his momentum back, but it doesn't really work when you consider that Elias hasn't done a lot lately either. in the end, it just sucks that WWE would do this to one of their most popular stars in order to help another star finally get over.
