#1 Flopped on WWE SmackDown: King Corbin

Not the best night for the king
The blame for this does not fall on the Superstar as much as it lies with his current booking on WWE SmackDown. Tonight, King Corbin was scheduled to face Big E in a singles match. However, their bout came to an abrupt end when Sami Zayn decided to interfere and attack Big E. Following that, Apollo Crews ran to Big E’s defense and helped him which led to a tag team match.

During this match, Corbin was far from dominating inside the ring. Despite two additional allies in his corner, Corbin struggled to keep the momentum in his favor. Instead, his men were threatening Zayn on the ringside. At one point, Zayn accidentally ended up hitting Corbin and the latter immediately decided to leave the match in between on WWE SmackDown.
Ultimately, Zayn was pinned by Crews as Corbin shockingly abandoned his tag team partner. Given that he is the current King of the Ring, Corbin should be booked in better rivalries which make him look strong. Unfortunately, he is being booked as an extremely cowardly heel on WWE SmackDown -`- something that the Blue brand should avoid in the future.
