The intention of the WWE King of the Ring tournament is to boost the star power of the tournament winner, but because the company did such a great job booking this year's tournament, the opportunity exists to create not one big star in Baron Corbin, but a second big star in Chad Gable.

Gable was the ultimate underdog in the tournament this year but utilized his incredible in-ring abilities to impress fans and advance all the way to the finals of the King of the Ring tournament.

With Baron Corbin's first post-KOTR feud looking to be with Chad Gable, WWE needs to avoid making the mistake of having Corbin bury Gable.

The King of the Ring finals match featured great back-and-forth action, which should allow for Gable and Corbin to have really competitive matches during the course of their feud.

It might even be a good idea to have Chad Gable come out of the feud on top, as Baron Corbin will remain a hated heel, which has been the goal, and WWE could build a star on the rise with Gable finally defeating the King of the Ring.
