#3. No concrete plans for the Shinsuke Nakamura-King Corbin feud

It's been a month now since King Corbin has faced Shinsuke Nakamura almost every week on SmackDown. The feud seemed to be over the crown, and it even served as the platform for Rick Boogs to make his SmackDown debut.

While the feud was entertaining at first, it has run its course. There isn't much substance to the storyline and it seems like the duo are merely exchanging victories and trying to grab the crown.

This week, King Corbin defeated Shinsuke Nakamura and reclaimed the crown. However, Boogs tripped him and allowed Nakamura to hit a swift kick to the head and reclaim the crown.

That's it. Nothing more, nothing less. We can only hope WWE pulls the plug on the feud soon.

The way things stand, neither man wins. But we get the feeling that WWE will prioritize Corbin over Nakamura going forward on SmackDown.
