10 Times Wrestlers Were Embarrassed On Live TV (That You Totally Forgot About)
4. Baron Corbin Fails To Cash In After Backstage Issues
Though it's not exactly been forgotten just how badly Baron Corbin's attempts to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase went on the August 15, 2017 edition of SmackDown, it is often overlooked precisely why this embarrassing turn of events came to pass.
In short, The Lone Wolf hadn't been endearing himself to the people higher up, with his blocking of fellow wrestlers on Twitter and challenging of a doctor during a talent meeting both being cited as reasons for his stock dropping in the company.
This all ultimately led to Corbin being punished and humiliated for his behaviour by having him fail during his cash-in on Jinder Mahal during the WWE Champion's match with John Cena. This wasn't the end of Corbin's on-air punishment, however, as the star also found himself being fed to the Face That Runs the Place at that year's SummerSlam.
That being said, it wasn't long before Corbin was back in the company's good graces, winning United States Championship gold and even wiggling his way into the main event scene for a spell in the lead-up to 'Mania 34.
