Corbin could've started his main event push this week

From a failed main event push to a failed Raw debut, Baron Corbin has always been reported to be viewed in high capacity by the WWE management. However, his booking never seems to back that rumour up. Moreover, it is indeed disappointing that Corbin has the potential to carry a World Title in the company, but his terrible booking has ruined any credibility he has left, to do so.

That is why his debut on Raw was critical, as it was a new chapter, a new beginning and a new chance for "The Lone Wolf" to turn his failures into golden opportunities. However, taking out No way Jose is not going to do him any favours with getting over as a top player on the "A show." Therefore, WWE needed to debut Corbin in hot fashion and what better way for him to explode on the scene, than to take out the central player.

No Superstar is sitting higher on the company's totem pole than Roman Reigns, and Corbin laying waste to Reigns would not feel out of place, but would illustrate a man who is here to swim with the yop sharks of the brand. If Corbin has to be a main event player, WWE need to start booking him like one and this week they missed a huge chance.
