There's a litany of reasons to not care about this one, from the inane to the insidious. From a pure wrestling perspective, it's Matt Riddle vs. Baron flipping Corbin, for Pete's sake, a 'spectacle' we were mercilessly spared last week, only to discover it was a stay of execution.

Ordinarily, Riddle, WWE's stoned and similarly shoeless equivalent of Kevin von Erich, would wipe the face off Corbin's, well, face, in about five seconds flat (à la Kassius Ohno). But it's stupid sexy Baron Corbin, so who knows? On a night when Keith Lee is likely to see his relevance Randied outta nowhere, it'd be typically WWE for his former tag partner to receive the same treatment for the equally boring Baron.

We'll let Voltaire be our guide, and er on the side of optimism.

Prediction: Matt Riddle

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
