Meltzer - "Roman's potential WM opponent is..."

[Deleted]

From today's WOR

MELTZER: I think a singles match with Baron Corbin is the idea.

ALVAREZ: [incredulous/disgusted] Roman vs. Baron Corbin???

MELTZER: I know that's booked on all the house shows at that point. When Roman comes back, he's going to be doing matches with Baron Corbin.

ALVAREZ: That's worse than the SNL guys being on the show.

MELTZER: Yeah, I agree with you there. I think that could cool him off in a hurry.

I don't think Roman should be rushed back into the Universal Title picture or anything, but Corbin?

Gross.

[Deleted]

how does Corbin even still work there?

[Sparkybob]

This better be a 15 second squash

Yeah, for the pop Roman is going to get, this better be Goldberg levels of squash. Superman punch, Spear, pin, get out of the ring

Poor Corbin.

Heh heh.

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

This boy Corbin is straight buns. Everything he touches turns to doo doo. Roman better destroy him in like 10 seconds.

[Gus Richlen Was Wrong]

I don't hate Baron Corbin but oy. That's perhaps the most uninspiring matchup outside of Lesnar that they could give Roman for his return.

[Rican]

For the life of me I cannot fathom what they see in Corbin. Like I am against people losing their jobs and think everyone in the WWE currently adds some kind of value and can be utilized in a way that showcases their strengths but not this guy. Holy SHIT he sucks.

[Macho Pichu]

It does seem kinda boring, but it does flow well with what we've already got going. We have The Shield vs Corbin, Lashley and McIntyre at Fastlane already. Rollins is going to have to pivot to Lesnar for Mania, so you may as well have Roman keep a feud up with someone he's already working with. I assume Dean will probably work with one of the other 2 and get a win on the way out to leave the door open.

[TWERKIN' MAGGLE]

Finally the debate about Kevlar Vest vs Cloth Vest will be settled.

He's fine for me when he's limited to one segment/match because I do think he's a good midcard goober, but you'd think he was top heel material with all the attention he gets. And he ain't that.

Corbin used to be better when he was working under Angle. The moment Angle was out as GM Corbin got worse to the point where now he's like a CAW running wild.

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

Honestly, I don't like this, not because of the actual match idea.

It's the fact that Corbin is gonna be all over the shows to promote this shit and that's unacceptable.

[Spider2024]

Honestly, I'm good with that. That's actually BETTER than what I thought was going to be booked (a throwaway 6-man tag with Corbin/McIntyre/Lashley). In theory they could still do that with McIntyre/Lashley/Lio Rush, but that would still be better since Lio Rush gets into an actual WM match.

[Deleted]

I hope this is a thing where they’re easing Roman back in with some quick squashes because Corbin is about as useful as an infected ass.

[sarkerpolseng]

I liked Jost and Che on Raw.

[Deleted]

It'd be the funniest sight if Baron actually went over, just to see how the internet reacted.

[Deleted]

We all know Reigns isn't squashing this guy. It'll be the standard "babyface gets dominated for most of the match before the comeback win" thing we see them do with most babyfaces.
