Predicting WWE's WrestleMania 34 Card (One Year Out)

Baron Corbin is poised to play a key role on SmackDown post-WrestleMania 33, and the big man's momentum will surely skyrocket towards the main event scene in time for next year's 'Mania supercard.

WWE do not need to rush with Corbin though; even when inevitably featured as a marquee heel on SmackDown, the brazen Baron shouldn't be pushed awkwardly into meaningless title reigns before he's truly ready to become a permanent staple in the WWE or Universal Title scene.

For at least the next year, Corbin is the kind of ruthless villain who doesn't need a title to be over, and that's precisely why he should focus on making a statement instead.

The success of AJ Styles ramming Shane McMahon through a car window to set up their 'Mania 33 showdown would provide the template for Corbin vs. Shane come 34. Such violent attacks wouldn't be random either, because Corbin has already served up pain on Dean Ambrose and Kalisto in the past.

A street fight opposite McMahon would validate Baron Corbin's status as a top dog on SmackDown and also give Shane what should now be an annual 'Mania brawl to look forward to.
