Baron Corbin is pushing for a popular WWE star to be added to a title match at SummerSlam. The veteran returned to the company on the July 10 episode of SmackDown.

There was a massive Fatal 4-Way match in the main event of this past Friday's edition of the blue brand. Trick Williams battled Damian Priest, Royce Keys, and Finn Balor in a Fatal 4-Way match. The winner of the match would go on to battle Sami Zayn at SummerSlam 2026 to determine the number one contender for the Undisputed WWE Championship. Finn Balor emerged victorious and is scheduled to battle The Last Real Good Guy at the PLE next month.

After SmackDown went off the air, Baron Corbin attacked United States Champion Trick Williams. The Lone Wolf responded to a fan today on social media who was wondering why Carmelo Hayes was not involved in the rivalry for the US Title, and Corbin responded that he needed to be. The conversation happened in the comments section of a Triple H post on Instagram, and you can check it out in the image below.

Trick Williams won the United States Championship by defeating Sami Zayn at WrestleMania 42.

Baron Corbin sent a warning to Trick Williams following his surprise return to the promotion.

The veteran cut a promo on Williams earlier this month on SmackDown and claimed that Williams was the first name on a long list. He suggested that the majority of the WWE locker room was pretending to be tough.

It will be interesting to see if Corbin can defeat Williams at WWE SummerSlam to become the new United States Champion.
