Baron Corbin doesn’t get his due credit on WWE SmackDown that often. Regardless of what is given to him, he tries his best to make it work and does a good job until the writers run the storyline to the ground. But that shouldn’t be the reason why Corbin isn’t appreciated for some of his work. Tonight, he returned as “Happy Corbin” after a huge change of fortunes over the week.

He is rich now and has not held back from letting the world know about his massive turnaround. Corbin even got “you deserved it” chants from the fans on WWE SmackDown. He invited Big E to his segment and offered to buy the Money in the Bank contract but politely left when the New Day member had had enough of his ridiculous offers.
From this point on, Baron Corbin can move forward as both a heel and a babyface. He was once compelling as the “Lone Wolf” and can eventually borrow some of the elements from that gimmick for his current run. Fans have their eyes on him, and the creative team should take advantage by booking him in good feuds as we advance.
