Pat McAfee is former NFL athlete turned WWE commentator and an occasional in-ring talent. He’s one of the best trash talkers in of sports entertainment right now. Pat recently had a huge moment in his wrestling career at Wrestlemania earlier this year when he defeated Vince McMahon’s protege Theory in a highly fast-paced matchup.
Afterwards he lost to the former Chairman of the company, Vince McMahon who was making his in-ring return for the first time since 2011 following some interference from Theory. After the match concluded, the Texas homie ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin arrived, raised hell, stunned everyone including McAfee, Theory as well as Vince McMahon and left the stadium.
Last week on Friday Night Smackdown, Happy Corbin lost a Last Laugh match to Madcap Moss following which he was highly disappointed. He went straight to the Smackdown commentary desk and he targeted Pat McAfee for the so- called disrespect he felt Pat was injecting to him. He reminded McAfee of their long-term relationship and also threatened Pat to leave him dead inside of that ring. However, McAfee didn’t hold himself back a bit as he gave it back to Corbin which made him to leave the arena embarrassingly.
After Smackdown got over, multiple theories emerged our regarding why this segment was put on television and Dave Meltzer reported that WWE did that on purpose as they wanted Pat McAfee for Summerslam and that segment with Happy Corbin was done to sow the seeds of their potential match at the biggest party of the summer. Now, the report has come out absolutely true as the exact same happened last night on Smackdown.

Later in the promo, Pat McAfee challenged Happy Corbin to a match next month at the Summerslam premium-live-event in Nashville, Tennessee.
