#1 Baron Corbin (Set to face Cedric Alexander)

Baron Corbin got through the first round by overcoming a formidable opponent in The Miz, and should be confident enough to progress to the next round. Prior to his inclusion in the King of the Ring tournament, the Lone Wolf was in the Universal Title picture. Despite three valiant attempts, he failed to capture the most coveted prize of the Red Brand.
With a new in-ring gear, Corbin returned to the singles action this week. He had an astounding match with the A-Lister. Their match was certainly one of the best matches of night.

Corbin is scheduled to face Cedric Alexander who has been enjoying an outstanding run. Cedric Alexander met Sami Zayn in the first round of the tournament, as the former Crusierweight Champion was triumphant in this clash and also gained momentum after defeating Cesaro this week.
Overcoming a challenge from Cedric Alexander will not be a cakewalk for Baron Corbin and the former Cruiserweight Champion could be expected to give a tough fight. If Corbin manages to advance to the third round of the tournament, he should be the top pick to win the crown. A tournament victory could allow him to return to the Universal Title picture once again.
