It’s about time Baron Corbin gets some respect from WWE.
Now wrestling in a black tank top rather than a vest, Corbin took on The Miz in the final first round King of the Ring match-up on the Raw side of the bracket. The match was just a match, though Miz did cut a pretty okay promo prior to the opening bell.
Once the match began, neither Miz or Corbin took full control of the contest.

Off an odd springboard maneuver from Miz, Corbin ducked out of the way and hit an End of Days to earn the three count.
