The heart of the matter
During a recent instalment of ‘Talk is Jericho’, Corbin revealed that shortly after his match against Austin Aries at NXT Takeover, ‘The Game’ called him into a room and told him that he would be making his main roster debut the very next night at Wrestlemania 32. Interestingly, according to the ‘Lone Wolf’, HHH gave him the good news while typing something on his phone.
“He never breaks typing on his cell phone to tell me this, but he's like, typing on his phone, he looks up, he goes, 'Hey, tomorrow, you're going to be in the André The Giant Memorial Battle Royal,” added Corbin.
He went on to add that he shares a wonderful bond with McMahon and often discusses creative ideas with him. Moreover, Corbin stressed that the WWE Chairman does a wonderful job of motivating him while keeping his ego under control.
What’s next?
Corbin is likely to take on Shinsuke Nakamura at the Battleground PPV later this month. However, this match has not been announced yet. One can expect this feud to pick up momentum in the days to come.
Author's take
Corbin is arguably quite a talented performer and has a bright future. As he is the current ‘ Mr Money in the Bank’, it's only a matter of time before he a major main event push and becomes WWE Champion. In other words, the era of the ‘Lone Wolf’ is almost upon us.
