As a long-time WWE fan who has seen the rollercoaster ride that is the roster, I must say, it’s always bittersweet when a familiar face departs. Baron Corbin, a man who left an indelible mark on NXT and later struggled to find his footing in the main roster, is one such talent.
In recent times, WWE has managed to steer clear of the frequent dismissals of talent that were commonplace earlier. However, given the abundance of gifted individuals on the roster, it’s only natural that some will be let go. Thus, it was announced on Friday that the company plans to sever ties with Baron Corbin and other stars, a move that Corbin himself verified through his social media posts. As fans express their sympathies, more insights are emerging about how he truly felt during his tenure with the company.
While the superstars of the WWE are either recovering from the trip to Saudi Arabia or preparing for other upcoming WWE events, Baron Corbin was at home making some fantastic steak. Brianscollectibles518 commented on the Instagram Reel, saying the company “fumbled the bag,” letting him go, and the superstar made one of his first comments about his tenure in the company since his release:
I appreciate that and feel the same.
It’s satisfying to learn that Baron Corbin believed he had more potential to offer WWE than what they utilized. He was among the standout talents I thought deserved their first significant title reign, and it’s puzzling to many fans why he wasn’t involved in major storylines since his promotion from NXT in 2016. Despite being a top star in NXT, Corbin found himself in the mid-tier of the main roster for the following years.
It’s unfortunate that Baron Corbin excelled when given the chance, as his time with the company was genuinely entertaining despite being quite absurd. If he hadn’t left the company, he could have possibly played a role in bringing MJF over from AEW.
Absolutely, the WWE is bursting at the seams with talent right now, and with top-tier wrestlers finding themselves moved down the card to make room for newcomers or main events, it’s a tough break for some exceptional performers who might unfortunately get pushed out of the company due to lack of screen time.
It’s been said that Baron Corbin, along with Tegan Nox and Indi Hartwell, are rumored WWE releases forthcoming. However, judging by Indi Hartwell’s response, it appears her departure may have caught her off guard.
Wait what https://t.co/XCw3qEe2dQNovember 1, 2024
In the forthcoming months, I’m looking forward to finding out more about Baron Corbin’s experiences in the WWE and his future plans. While it’s plausible that he might switch to another pro wrestling group, there’s also a chance he may collaborate with WWE commentator Pat McAfee on something new.
In a potential turn of events, it might be interesting for Corbin, who once played alongside him on the Indianapolis Colts, to appear as a guest on McAfee’s show or even join College Gameday. Given that McAfee carefully manages his time between his show and WWE, there seems to be no issue with this wrestler making an appearance on the college program. Regardless of what transpires, I sincerely hope that Corbin’s new employer makes better use of him than his previous one did.
Baron Corbin may be gone from the WWE, but those with a Peacock Premium subscription can revisit some of his past matches in the archives. TopMob will continue to keep an eye out for other releases in the company over the coming days as we inch closer to WrestleMania season kicking off at the start of 2025.
