It hasn't been the best year for Baron Corbin, but things are finally looking up.
WWE held a live event on Saturday night from Paris, France as part of the annual post-WrestleMania European tour. The show was headlined by Cody Rhodes vs. Finn Balor, with “The American Nightmare” going over the Judgment Day leader.
