Look, he might.

If you're looking for a personal recommendation here I can't give you one. As much as I love Baron Corbin and how he's gone from Easily The Worst Thing On The Brand to Easily The Most Self-Aware Wrestler In The Company, Boo Me You Marks I'll Just Put On Another Chin Lock, that's still a million miles away from the company putting one of the top prizes on him. But, but but but but but, stranger things have happened.

The suggestion is that this could be used as a classic bait-and-switch for Brock. Have Corbin soak up the heat with a dastardly win over a not-100% Seth Rollins, then have Brock steamroller his way in and crush the guy in the midst of his greatest career moment. This protects Seth Rollins, and gives you cause enough to do him vs Brock instead of labouring with Corbin in the main event.

Let's not forget, Corbin was himself and Money in the Bank briefcase holder for a time until some regrettable behaviour let to a botched cash-in attempt for the ages. They thought highly of him once, there's no reason they don't again.
