The potential is there, could he be the next Paul Heyman Guy?

Baron Corbin is one of those guys who are seemingly on the verge of doing something great. This is a guy who has such a high ceiling, yet just cannot seem to find all of the pieces of his own proverbial puzzle, for one reason or another. He has the size, the in-ring presence, the intimidation factor and a great look. But, for some reason, he just can't seem to get everything synced up.

Baron also has a huge chip on his shoulder. Now, this can be a good thing, but not in this case. Corbin just has a bad attitude and it has held him back in recent years in NXT. With that said, he has addressed the attitude issue and from what I can tell, he's gotten better with it. This was apparently one of his biggest problems during his NFL stint, ultimately contributing to his demise in football.
One of Corbin's biggest problems is his inability to be effective on the mic. Simply put, the guy is terrible with his promos. Thankfully for him, Paul Heyman is one of the best talkers, not only of this era but of all-time. If Corbin was to seek the services offered by Heyman, he would indeed have one of the greatest mouthpieces at his disposal, allowing Corbin to focus on taking care of business in-between the bells and stack up wins, courtesy of the End of Days.

About the author

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
