Baron Corbin: perfect example that working hard and all that means nothing at all. He went back to NXT and reinvented himself (again) and was doing the best work of his career, then HHH calls him back up and proceeds to do absolutely nothing with him. Meanwhile, charisma houdinis like Bronson Reed are being pushed on top.

This is also another example of how HHH doesn't get called out on his incompetent booking. When Vince was running the show and he'd call people up from NXT and do nothing with them, he was relentlessly called out on it. HHH does the exact same thing and there's crickets.
