Well, the Balrog was clearly less powerful than Sauron. So, had he succeeded in taking the Ring and become its bearer, he would have succumbed to its will, which was the will of Sauron. So he would have ended up either as a sevant of Sauron and given the Ring up willingly to him, or he would have tried to challenge Sauron and died in the process. Either way, it's likely Sauron would have got the Ring. [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]
