In 2017, Baron Corbin won the Money in the Bank briefcase after outlasting top WWE Superstars including AJ Styles, Kevin Owens, and Shinsuke Nakamura. At the time Jinder Mahal was holding the WWE Championship and it seemed more than likely that Corbin would go on to win the title from The Modern Day Maharaja.

However, Corbin’s cash-in did not go as predicted as the Superstar was rolled up by Mahal who picked up the victory to retain his title and deflate Corbin’s rise. Soon after, Corbin was also defeated by John Cena at SummerSlam which led to him becoming nothing more than a mid-carder again.

Corbin could have become a WWE Champion by now

One of the reasons behind his fall involved his responses on Twitter to a few fans and also to Dave Meltzer. Corbin has been known to be hotheaded, and the Superstar replied harshly to provocations leading to the creatives punishing him for his actions.

While Corbin did recover from the bookings, it seems as though he won’t stop responding to trolls and critics on social media anytime soon. Corbin is yet to win a WWE Championship, but keeping in mind that he is a big tough guy who has impressed Vince McMahon several times, we can expect him to win the title a few times in his career.
