Yeah I don't mind Corbin, per se, and he has a role. But he should win, like, zero feuds. I just wonder if this'll be the first main roster Corbin feud to ever end when it should and not drag on for a few more months.

You monster, if it ends that means we'll never get the Pat vs Corbin Dog Food Buffet Match at Survivor Series

I've been saying he should have a stint in NXT 2.0 for a couple months. I'd take him as champ over Bron.

I've been saying he should have a stint in NXT 2.0 for a couple months. I'd take him as champ over Bron. I would be fine with him challenging Bron, but probably to just put him over. Like, I like Corbin well enough, but he's also probably a good measuring stick for how ready Bron is. Bron working with Ziggler was a good baseline for if someone could carry him if need be, but Corbin would be a more realistic example of, say, the median wrestler experience on the main roster. Competent, but he isn't going to be able to save Breakker if he isn't on his game.

I’m hoping beyond hope he was a Vince pet project.

Disappointed with the lack of pro-Corbin support. It’s Baron Corbin. The guy who was so such a dud of a push, management went on TV and blamed him for all the woes. You really shouldn’t be.

It was an OK match. Since McAfee is around announcing all the time, I don't think they shoud have felt obligated to give him the standard celebrity win. Corbin could have used it to build towards his next feud.

I’m hoping beyond hope he was a Vince pet project. Pushing him as a main-event singles guy this quickly? Maybe so. Pushing him in general? Super unlikely to be just a Vince thing. Like, honestly, Bron's got all the stuff Triple H would probably want in a talent, too, he's just had a mix of astonishingly stupid angles and not enough seasoning. I feel like Bruno Sammartino could have had that 4 year long plodding feud with Joe Gacy and people would have been wondering what business he had being a world champion.

I think Corbin has potential to be a top guy in the company, but he needs to just go away for a long time and make people forget about him. Eh, I think he's developed into a very good mid-card heel, who's always going to get heat, and looks credible enough to take losses putting over younger talent. Whether he has a ceiling above that is not for me to say, but I'm not sure I'd be booking him to beat massively-over special attractions on major cards. I've been saying he should have a stint in NXT 2.0 for a couple months. I'd take him as champ over Bron. oh shit, now that you mention it douchey "I've been on the main roster" Superstar Baron Corbin could be money in NXT 2.0 Now this, this is the shit I'm here for. Baron "Go back to Ring of Honor you vanilla midgets" Corbin is the best Corbin, and in the current climate, actually quite timely and more meta than ever

I didn’t see the match but I 100% support any sort of Pat McAfee Depreciation. I just cannot stand him. Total opposite for me. I f***ing love that guy, but there is some strong Colts fan bias in there. And his enthusiasm for wrestling just radiates through the screen, I have so much fun when he’s on the show be it commentary or in ring I love Pat and Cole’s chemistry/friendship on commentary. It’s very endearing.

This is going to be weird for me to say but hear me out;
Baron Corbin is a higher pushed QT Marshall.
I said hear me out!
They’re both solid workers, both total heat magnets who crowds are going to hate when they come out because they’re such assholes and can still get that heat enough to put over someone new but you push them above that level of midcarder, it’s hard for it to work because they’re not going to have that same credibility as better talents. And that’s fine if they don’t! They have a role and niche they fit and anyone starting a promotion would want someone like them in their company.
Someone brought up his NXT run and whilst it wasn’t spectacular for the most part (Corbin/Dempsey is the worst No DQ match in company history, and arguably the worst of the Black and Gold era of NXT), his role as entitled dude from the WWE system not caring for these indie guys and being an ass about it is perfect for him.

I think you're right, but I also think Baron had a window where they could have done more in 2017-2018 whereas QT is probably right where he should be. 2017-2018 Corbin had a fighting chance of breaking through and if they followed through on it, 2019 could have been a year where he had a title run. They instead went with the crappy Constable/King gimmicks.

Pat was a bit off with a few spots but it happens. He is still learning. The enthusiasm Cole showed for him winning made me crack up.
