Worst Option - Baron Corbin

As evidenced by his two prior failures as capturing the title, it just isn't in the cards for Corbin to be the man to take the title off of Rollins. He's done decent heel work, but for whatever reason, he just doesn't click with the audience. They may boo him, but it's more of a 'go away' boo like those Shane McMahon receives.

A truly great heel gets boos from the audience because of his or her work, much like Bryan or Kevin Owens. Corbin doesn't have that ability despite the constant push from Creative lately.

He was never probably going to win his matches with Rollins, but they had to have someone challenge Rollins between MITB and SummerSlam. Since there was little to no chance of Corbin winning the belt, it made sense.

The Lone Wolf was his own worst enemy, barking at the referee and getting in his face. He's the only reason he lost, not officiating or anything else. He's better suited for mid-card heeldom whereas the likes of Sami Zayn and Samoa Joe have both the in-ring talent and mic skills to be main-event heels, even if they aren't booked that way.
