#3: King Corbin unleashed his dangerous side after pushing Elias off a high railing
King Corbin has been one of the most consistent heels on Friday Night SmackDown.
But mostly, his act revolves around portraying an annoying heel every week. King Corbin is a pompous figure who is often relegated to comedic segments many times. This is because his heel gimmick is perfectly tailored for a comedy program.
At some point, the character needs to establish himself as a dangerous threat to reach the next level.
Many thought that an impromptu feud with Elias wouldn't do Corbin any huge favors. However, Corbin unleashed his threatening side on last night's episode, where Elias had arrived to sing a song that ridiculed his WrestleMania opponent.
After Elias finished his performance, Corbin assaulted The Drifter out of nowhere.
The whole fiasco reached a tipping point when Elias was forced to hang by a railing high above the ground. This ended when Corbin used his scepter to knock Elias off a railing to the floor.
Elias and King Corbin's feud was nowhere near the hottest feuds on the Road to WrestleMania 36. But last night's segment was necessary to legitimize this program as something worthy of your time.
