#3 Baron Corbin vs Bray Wyatt

Bray Wyatt has all of the lights turned off for his entrance, so needs a lamp to find his way to the ring.  Makes about as much sense as his booking.

Baron Corbin is a mystery. Pushed as a monster in NXT before given a prime spot on Smackdown as the United States Champion, Baron Corbin is a mystery because I'm at a loss to explain why he is where he is in the first place. His stilted performances in the ring, dull mic-work and lousy attitude have marked him out as someone who can be perhaps best described as "Tall Randy Orton." Except Orton has had main event success and been part of some excellent storylines. Corbin's merits remain elusive.

Bray Wyatt on the other hand, has obvious talent. He's a good wrestler, a great talker, and has an entrance that is truly different from anyone else on the roster. It's a shame that his credibility has been smashed to pieces by wildly indifferent and inconsistent booking by the WWE, and he now seems to be languishing. Wyatt could have been, and perhaps with time still can become a true main event performer, perhaps akin to a Bayou version of Mankind, but right now he resembles nothing more than a scruffier version of Gangrel.

I see an in-ring promo battle go something like this:

Wyatt: "Baron, you've been sitting in the shade too long and your time in the sun will surely burn you. I am the light, Baron, and you will bask in me and it will be your undoing."

Corbin: "No. I won't."
