If Roman and Kevin Owens had a long program together Roman could get over, but Kevin Owens has to beat the dog shyt out of Roman for months before he gets his. They need to go old school and find him his true adversary other than Brock. Samoa Joe vs Roman in a long program could be really interesting as well. He just has to learn to be a bit more natural on camera but he's coming a long way.

Finn is dope. He's paid his dues and has great in ring psychology. Size is the only thing holding him back once he moves up to the E. His style is hard and will kill his knees in another 5 years if he keeps up the same pace though...

I don't think they were ever going to go with Hideo as the face of NXT just off his language barrier issues and he really "doesn't connect"

They pretty much neutered him from the start. He didn't get to keep his name or move-set and for a foreigner like him, ring-work is basically the only thing that's going to get him over. It doesn't help that he hasn't really adapted to the WWE style and that he jobbed to the Ascension before they made him a damsel-in-distress for Finn's debut

Roman is entertaining and Finn is the most boring NXT champ of all-time.
not a lie.

Finn is that dude but his run has been trash and i cant tell if its him...the writing..or his low key injuries he's been fighting through. whole reign has been memorable.

NXT title reigns have all been kinda wack to me... Sami's was underwhelming but had the great story telling with KO...KO's reign was dope because he came in and got it and went to the main roster with it...Neville's reign was almost as bad as Finns except he had some really good matches in that run.

Swear Finn's whole reign has been backstage interview segments and dancing around with Bayley at live shows

There is some truth in this. Breh is a bland face and always has been :yeshrug:

Finn's a pretty bland face, he will be much better as a heel

Biggest difference is Reigns is the "underdog overcoming the odds" when we all know he's far beyond that, Balor is just a good guy who's got the belt :yeshrug:

Not as a whole but Roman has shined way more in the last few months than Finn has...I'm not a Rome fan at all but i dont hate him like everyone else. He still came off better than Finn having one match per month and just doing backstage interviews for his entire run...but he's been hurt so he cant do much beyond that.

I love Finn, but there's truth to him being bland as a face. I wouldn't go as far to say Roman is more entertaining, but Finn's face run has been underwhelming. Its not totally his fault, as before Joe turned he really had no legit heel on his level after KO left. But when Finn gets the BC going and turns, Roman won't hold a candle to him.

he's certainly had better matches than the people you guys prop up. put ambrose in the ring with sheamus and they don't have a match nearly as good as the roman/sheamus match at tlc

They did a pretty big rollout when they signed Hideo, seems like between the injury and him having to REALLY alter his style to "WWE-ize" things didn't go as smooth as they'd hoped.
