WWE Money in the Bank 2017 featured the biggest victory in the career of Baron Corbin, who outlasted Shinsuke Nakamura, AJ Styles, Kevin Owens, Dolph Ziggler and Sami Zayn to win the coveted briefcase. Credit: WWE/TwitterCorbin had long been the overwhelming betting favorite despite being the least accomplished superstar in the star-studded Money in the Bank field. WWE officials have evidently recognized that as well as the company reportedly has high hopes for Corbin, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter (h/t WrestlingInc):Dave Meltzer recently reported on Wrestling Observer Radio that WWE is really high on Baron Corbin. Meltzer also reported that the plan is for Corbin to be pushed as the main heel on SmackDown. However, now is the ideal time for WWE to take a risk on someone like "The Lone Wolf."
