Ups...

6. Tough Break For Braun

Facing a pretty dire situation, Baron Corbin really had nothing to lose, so he took decisive action Monday night.

Corbin is slated to face Braun Strowman in four weeks at TLC, a match where he could get maimed after tormenting and taunting Braun. So Baron enlisted some help Monday in brutally attacking Braun during and after their match, getting DQ’d and then apparently shattering Strowman’s elbow with the ring steps.

The move gives Corbin a leg (arm?) up heading into TLC, as he couldn’t have been favored, even in a TLC match. But Braun with only one good arm? It’s at least a little more believable, and it lines up with Baron being desperate enough to sink to that level.
