When fans first saw Baron Corbin, they did not seem impressed. Still, WWE tried to push him towards the top before giving-up. That all took place over a decade ago and while Corbin remains employed by WWE, they have not used him too much. He is certainly not going to be WWE Champion, but remains loyal and helpful to the promotion.

In the spring of last tear, Corbin was not drafted to RAW or SmackDown. Instead, going as a free agent, he retuned to NXT. Now, many would see that as a demotion, but not Corbin. He made the most of his time in NXT, putting over several wrestlers including Bron Breakker. WWE then sent him to SmackDown, where Corbin teamed as a face with Apollo Crews.

That all took take place in July and we have not seen Corbin since. Fightful Select noted how Corbin is ready to wrestle. He did not want to team with Crews at first, but that mindset has changed. Yet, the two have not been paired together in months. Therefore, Corbin is simply waiting on creative to have a storyline ready to go.

In the mean time, he continues to work dark matches. Hopefully, WWE can find something for him to do on TV. Face Corbin is something we do not know as he spent almost his entire career being hated. Sometimes, changing a wrestler’s name or gimmick is not enough; which seems to be what WWE did for over 10 years. So, what you think WWE should do with Baron Corbin storyline wise?
