- Devitt's ring name, Finn Balor, is based on two Celtic mythological figures. Fion (pronounced Finn) MacCool is a mythical Irish hunter and warrior. Balor (modern spelling: Balar) was king of the Fomorians, a group of supernatural beings. He is often described as a giant with a large eye in his forehead that wreaks destruction when opened. He has been interpreted as a god or personification of drought and blight. When Devitt has the demon paint, he is Balor. When he does not have the paint, he is Finn. Having a hero's first name and villain's last name symbolizes the constant battle of good and evil within one's self.
