As part of the lead-up to his SummerSlam match against Finn Bálor, Constable Baron Corbin sanctioned individual contests for himself and The Extraordinary Man. The Lone Wolf, perhaps looking to select someone of similar build to Bálor, selected Tyler Breeze, and while the former United States Champion notched the victory, he turned out to be a bit more overconfident than he should have been.
Corbin based his entire strategy around a ground-and-pound game plan that made good use of his size advantage, but Prince Pretty didn’t go down without a fight, even landing an enziguiri on the outside that left The Lone Wolf stunned. An overzealous Breeze went to follow up and sprinted headlong into the Deep Six, which was enough to put Breeze down.
But whereas Corbin went to great lengths to select a Superstar who would give him a comparable look to Bálor, he had no problem stacking the deck when it came to The Extraordinary Man's opponents. Claiming to have selected a match appropriate for a Superstar who considers himself a "big man," Corbin revealed he had scheduled a Handicap Match that pitted the first-ever Universal Champion against Kevin Owens & Jinder Mahal.
