5 funniest Baron Corbin moments in WWE

Where do we start with Baron Corbin? From The Lone Wolf on NXT, to the Constable of RAW, to the King, to rock bottom and now becoming filthy rich on SmackDown. No matter what particular role he is given, he has always delivered and given it his all.

But it hasn't all been plain sailing for the now Happy Corbin. There's been plenty of shenanigans along the way, with Corbin sadly at the end of some unfortunate moments.

That being said, let's take a look at the five funniest Baron Corbin moments in WWE.

#5 Baron Corbin interrupted Becky Lynch and The Rock on the SmackDown on FOX

WWE made their debut on FOX with Friday Night SmackDown on October 4th, 2019. It was a lucrative deal for the company and they certainly had to kick off the show in style.

The show opened with RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch. The Mayor of Jackpot City and then-King Baron Corbin made his way and claimed he should be opening the show. Lynch warned him not to come any further into the ring. Just as Corbin was about to enter, The Rock's famous entrance music hit, to the delight of the WWE Universe in attendance.

Sadly for Corbin, The Rock gave him one of the greatest dressing down's he's ever given to another WWE Superstar. The Great One mocked Corbin's king attire and even got the WWE Universe to chant the abbreviations of 'Super Tough Dude' at him. It was definitely a rough ten minutes or so for the former Money in the Bank contract winner. It had the WWE Universe in stitches.

In the end, things got worse for the then-King who was then beaten down by Becky Lynch and The Rock. Both delivered their finishing moves to Corbin and sent him packing.

The former Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal winner spoke to Metro after the show about working with The Rock:

"That’s a dream come true. I’ve been here seven years, I don’t think I’ve ever met him. I may have walked by him running around doing something at ‘Mania. He’s coming to be a part of the show, he’s probably the biggest icon on the face of the earth right now. For him to find time to be part of this shows how big it really is!" Baron Corbin said.

For Corbin, it'll be a moment he'll remember forever, for both good and bad reasons. It was a huge rub, no doubt, and showed just how much he is valued backstage in WWE by being put in such a position.

#4 Baron Corbin begging to keep his job as Constable of Monday Night RAW

Remember the era of Constable Baron Corbin when everyone complained he was dressed like a waiter? Those were the days, right? On the December 17th, 2018 edition of RAW, Constable Corbin faced The McMahon Family in the middle of the ring to save his role. He wanted to be the permanent general manager of Monday Night RAW. Corbin was being blamed for the low ratings RAW was drawing at the time, in the storyline.

It was an incredible moment as the fans were all in Constable's case. They booed him at every moment and chanted "You S*ck!" He was universally disliked and that was definitely excelerated during this segment. Even the McMahon family didn't want to see him succeed, but they did give Corbin a chance to become the permanent GM.

All he had to do was defeat Kurt Angle, but it wasn't going to be that simple. The McMahon family also appointed a Special Guest Referee, Heath Slater, who Corbin had previously messed with. Then Triple H turned it into a Handicap Match with more Superstars who Corbin had screwed in Robert Roode, Chad Gable and Apollo Crews.

Of course, it spelled disaster for the Constable, who fell to defeat. His dream of becoming the permanent General Manager of RAW was over.

#3 Baron Corbin hit rock bottom on SmackDown

It was a sorry time for Baron Corbin when he lost his King of the Ring crown to Shinsuke Nakamura on Friday Night SmackDown in the summer of 2021. A month after losing his crown, he turned up to SmackDown in dirty clothes, he hadn't shaved or cut his hair. He'd hit rock bottom. Corbin claimed he lost everything when he lost his crown, including his car, investments, his home, and his wife had left him.

Although circumstances like this aren't to be laughed at, it was simply a comedy character Baron Corbin was playing. Over the weeks he would beg people for money and at one point even stole Big E's Money in the Bank briefcase. He didn't want to eat tinned food anymore, he wanted his wagyu beef back. It amused the WWE Universe, who wanted to see what was going to happen next with the fallen King.

It was a rough time for the former United States Champion and it looked as though his luck had completely run out. It wasn't until WWE hit Las Vegas for SummerSlam weekend that things began to look up.

#2 Baron Corbin becomes Happy Corbin following a trip to Las Vegas

Baron Corbin declared himself 'filthy rich' on the August 27th, 2021 episode of Friday Night SmackDown. During WWE's weekend in Las Vegas for SummerSlam, Corbin's luck finally changed.

He posted videos on social media during his time in Vegas, where he just kept on winning money in the famous casinos. We don't know the exact figure Corbin won, but his whole outlook has now changed. He arrived at the arena on August 27th in a brand new Bentley and a thousand dollar suit. What a turnaround!

Corbin's videos in Vegas are just a joy to behold. Boasting of his successes and declaring that he is the 'Mayor of Jackpot City'. He even changed his Twitter handle to that name. It is the sort of character we wish we could see more often, and not just for a few minutes on TV each week. For Corbin, this year has seen some of his finest and most hilarious work.

#1 Baron Corbin being covered in dog food on SmackDown

It was by far the most embarrassing and hilarious moment of Baron Corbin's WWE career so far. In the midst of his feud with the Bloodline, Corbin, Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler covered Roman Reigns in dog food. Reigns was tied to the ringpost so had nowhere to go. It was only fair that the Bloodline eventually got their comeuppance on him.

On the January 31st, 2020 episode of SmackDown, a tag team match was made between the Bloodline and Corbin, Roode and Ziggler. The losers had to eat dog food that was placed at ringside. In the end, it was Reigns who picked up the victory over Corbin. It was finally time to pay for his actions.

The Uso's shackled Corbin to the ring post as the dog food was poured all over him. It was a humiliating moment and also one that got plenty of laughs from the WWE Universe. It was sweet revenge, that's for sure. The best part was probably when the Bloodline posed for a picture next to Baron Corbin after they'd done the deed.
