- Last night, Finn Balor opened a WWE live event in Bangor, Maine against Baron Corbin. On Twitter, a fan voiced his displeasure with Balor opening house shows. Cody Rhodes and Lance Storm both said that it was actually a desirable place to be for wrestlers, if they weren't in the main event.

It's a f—— disgrace that @FinnBalor is opening up house shows. Top 5 in the world and you've got him opening f—— house shows. This man deserves better. @CodyRhodes set this man free, please. For all wrestling fans.

Opening match is sometimes one of the more coveted spots on the card. Bunch of responsibility too...and for the biggest wrestling company in the world as well. https://t.co/XDgM6MdiIl

I used to ask to be the opener. If I'm not the Main Event that's my favourite spot.

Is it fair to say opening spot is fun because the fans are full of energy and your match can set the tone for the rest of the show?
