Could the Balrog use the One Ring?
He was a maia, too. He was mighty both in his powers as well as in his will to dominate others (the orcs) and the hatred he had against Elves and Men...
Given the opportunity, when hew as chasing the Fellowship in Moria, could he use the One Ring and, eventually, take Sauron's place?
