Since being drafted onto the blue brand last July, Corbin has been out of control, attacking everyone from Kalisto to Dean Ambrose. But when he put his hands on a WWE official in front of Team Blue’s top dog, Corbin crossed a line that left McMahon with no choice but to take swift action.
Now that Shane McMahon has asserted his authority, how will the brash Superstar respond upon his return to Team Blue?
