MILWAUKEE — Baron Corbin technically isn’t yet the permanent General Manager of Raw, but he’s feeling pretty good about his odds. With Braun Strowman laid up in the hospital and facing elbow surgery, The Lone Wolf dubbed himself the “General Manager-Elect,” all but declaring himself the pre-emptive winner of their high-stakes TLC Match that wages Strowman’s Universal Title opportunity against Corbin's job status — he gets the permanent job if he wins, and loses all authority if he loses.
The reason the match is still scheduled is because Corbin refused to cancel it, openly angling for a forfeit win over The Monster Among Men. (Strowman appeared on the TitanTron from his hospital bed and vowed that Corbin, Drew McIntyre and “The All Mighty” Bobby Lashley would Get These Hands, but Corbin scoffed at Strowman’s chances.) With McIntyre and Lashley pegged as his prospective lieutenants, Corbin seems to have a lot more muscle to flex, barring a miracle return by The Gift of Destruction. Corbin made a point of highlighting that he would remember which Superstars stood by his side after he gets the permanent gig, but given that Elias rained on his parade with a call-and-response of "Bobby Lashley Sucks" before a match with The All Mighty, it's safe to say The Lone Wolf can count at least one Superstar among his enemies, promotion or no.
