Happy Corbin claims he has fallen ill with a mysterious illness.
On the July 15 episode of WWE SmackDown, Pat McAfee came to the ring to discuss his contract extension and his looming clash with Corbin at WWE SummerSlam. Corbin interrupted by telling McAfee to stay in his lane as a broadcaster. He then stated that he caught something, either from sitting in McAfee’s commentary chair last week or from getting too close to the fans. He showed his arm to the camera and wondered whether it was monkeypox.
Given his sickness, he said he’ll have to keep his distance from McAfee, and perhaps SmackDown itself, for now, but he’ll still see him at SummerSlam. McAfee fired back by saying that Corbin doesn’t have monkeypox; instead, he’s allergic to being great.
Looks like @BaronCorbinWWE will have to keep his distance from @PatMcAfeeShow until they go head-to-head at #SummerSlam in two weeks. #SmackDown pic.twitter.com/1fKg4ejBPy

Corbin attacked McAfee after WWE Money in the Bank went off their air, as they have been feuding in recent weeks.
