Drew McIntyre vs. Happy Corbin official for WWE WrestleMania 38 night one
A new match has been made official for WrestleMania 38.
WWE has confirmed that Drew McIntyre vs. Happy Corbin will be part of the card for WrestleMania 38 night one. In storyline, the two are finally facing off after Corbin has avoided McIntyre leading into WrestleMania.
McIntyre defeated Corbin’s tag team partner Madcap Moss in matches at WWE Day 1, Elimination Chamber, and on last week’s episode of SmackDown. Corbin had Moss take his place in the match on SmackDown last Friday.
After McIntyre defeated Moss at Day 1 this January, there was an angle where McIntyre was attacked by Corbin and Moss backstage. The angle was a cover for legitimate neck issues that McIntyre was dealing with. He made his return to the ring later that month as a surprise entrant in the men’s Royal Rumble match.
