WWE loves to have its top heroes overcome seemingly insurmountable odds. It happened in almost every Hulk Hogan match in WWE and the same thing happened when John Cena would win after almost getting hit by a train. It was part of the reason why large portions of the fans turned against the faces.

The same type of booking was applied to Reigns. With a much smarter crowd to witness the current product, however, they weren't having it. WWE even did it for Rhea Ripley in her title win against Shayna Baszler after Ripley overcame outside interference and an injury to win.

The easiest way from Point A to Point B is to have one man simply pin the other after doing something to notch the win. The match doesn't necessarily need to have outside interference but this feud and these types of matches always utilize it.

A clean win by the King (as clean as it could be with the stipulation) would announce him as a real main-event threat. While I still think his win could only come after loads of help from his court, he could pick up a surprisingly clean win in Houston. The feud needs to come to an end so if Corbin wins, and wins definitively, it might. He also might continue to torment the Big Dog until the PPV before the Show of Shows just as a way to rub it in.
