King of the Ring 2019: 3 reasons why Chad Gable should defeat Elias on SmackDown to progress to the finals

#2 Elias and Baron Corbin have a lot in common

They're like peas in a pod!

What’ll happen if two loudmouths of RAW and SmackDown come face to face? Yes, that’s exactly what both Elias and Baron Corbin are. Both Elias and Corbin are despicable heels on their respective brands and have earned a similar status in the eyes of the WWE Universe.

They love to ridicule the crowds, put themselves above others, forge teams for their own benefits, and lose more matches than win them while retaining the same status.

Even though it’d be great to watch two similar heels from the different brands take on each other for supremacy, it wouldn’t be a great way to promote the two for the King of the Ring final at Clash of Champions.

On the other hand, give Corbin a babyface to play with and ridicule, and he is at his absolute best which he can do extremely well with someone like Chad Gable. Gable is a much more silent babyface who lets his talent do the talking, and we could have a great match between the two where one man is the clear favorite underdog and the other is the clear unwanted heel finalist.
