We saw Kevin Owens vs. Baron Corbin recently on SmackDown, which means that it won't happen at SummerSlam. But WWE should have reserved it for the card because it wouldn't have been a long match.

While the card is filled with matches promising a level of intensity, a light-hearted bout would be the missing piece. Corbin has been doing his best character work in the build to the pay-per-view.

He doesn't have a match at SummerSlam, or anything else, for that matter. After various attempts at restoring his financial stability, Baron Corbin seems to be continuously spiraling.

Kevin Owens gave him money on SmackDown, telling him to redeem himself in the process. Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode hilariously stole his money after Corbin received a shot to his private parts via a nerf gun.

He then tried sabotaging Finn Balor by securing a Universal title match against Roman Reigns at SummerSlam, but John Cena came out and signed the contract himself.

Did... did @BaronCorbinWWE just steal @WWEBigE's MITB briefcase? 😳#SmackDown pic.twitter.com/gUKay9VXVs

Corbin tried his luck on RAW and when asked by Drew McIntyre how much he needed to get out of his financial woes, he hilariously said $100,000. Stealing Big E's briefcase was his latest move.

A match against Big E or Kevin Owens would have been great on the SummerSlam card. Baron Corbin deserves to be on it for his work this past month alone. But don't be surprised to see him sneak his way into the event.
