This past Thursday, WWE hosted the Super ShowDown PPV event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The event saw SmackDown Superstars King Corbin and Roman Reigns face each other in a steel cage match after Corbin wanted to have another go at Reigns.

Even though Corbin put up a great fight, he lost to The Big Dog. The 2019 King of the Ring winner took to Twitter a while ago to comment on his loss. Corbin blamed the loss on his heavy-set entrance gear that he wore to the ring which allegedly made him fatigued.
