I suppose a win is a win, but at this point in his career, Baron Corbin needs some higher profile wins under his belt, if there truly is a plan to one day push him as a top big guy.
He has progressed fairly well as far as his in-ring work is concerned, but he's still got some work to do. If he can turn up his consistency a notch, he will be a force to reckoned with.

In the end, Corbin did pick up the win over Sin Cara. I just hope for his sake, the creative team decides to start booking him with some stronger opponents in the near future. This match just wasn't much to write home about.

About the author
J. Carpenter
Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
