10 Times WWE Were OBSESSED With Pointless Power

9. Constable Corbin

"This c*nt again, is it?"

That's what WWE presumably wanted people to think when giving Corbin yet another brand new authority figure title in their continued effort to irritate and annoy with the poor f*cker. If you say it fast, it sounds like the rudest swear word you see, and as you hate Corbin this is them giving you what you want, right?

Of course not.

Along with the alliteration, this position also gave Vince McMahon what he wanted. Which - for those that haven't watched regular for the last few years - was more Baron Corbin, more undermining of a babyface General Manager in Kurt Angle, and more fodder for the raft of on-air excuses about 'The Lone Wolf' being poison for the ratings of the show as if the poor f*cker had even an ounce of real control over his own words or actions.

Being generous, this was common-or-garden troll Corbin heel heat stuff...but when has his main roster run not been?
