Baron seems like the most chill humble dude

[@jaredblack2674]

He really is….people just hate him cuz wwe doesn’t know how to use him

[@theprodigy9617]

​@@jaredblack2674it's called being a heel

[@MrLiljoker310]

I wanna have a cigar liquor and the steak he cooks

[@johnnycapone1995]

Also one of the safest best superstars to work with, dude is really good low key

[@mrgregpayne7247]

Sorry to say but they don't know how to use him in the right way

[@bgfarm857]

Corbin is such a cool dude in real life. Id like them to allow him to let his real personality come through on tv

[@jamesjenosyde3657]

Yeah i didn't know he was this cool in real life

[@NotThatJonesShow]

I think they’re letting him do most of his personal image stuff on the show currently and he’s been a pretty decent heel on NXT he might slowly transition to being more himself after he gets a belt on him again

[@JaceRev]

He has a tiktok where he cooks great meals

[@Marquise619]

Nah he’s a great heel, they just need to give him more air time

[@user-qv3dj1pl4f]

You knew him personally? Exactly shut up

[@ts_of_defunct]

Corbin has a great attitude for the business, there's a good reason WWE has kept him around and protected his finisher for so long.

[@KRATOS9219]

That was until Drew McIntyre kicked out of it 😢

[@Bennary]

@@KRATOS9219Not even a huge BC fan but I still get mad about that 😢

[@johnnysilverhand7361]

For a big guy like Mcintyre its only fair if he kicked out of the finisher. Now if it was Rey Mysterio and kicked out of the finisher. People would get pissed off cause it doesnt make sense a 180 pound guy being slammed and still moved.

[@Bennary]

@@johnnysilverhand7361 Bruh it was like the only protected finisher left

[@johnnysilverhand7361]

@@Bennary put it this way. He is no Goldberg to have a record. So of course it had to be broken.

[@Triple-Four]

There's a reason Corbin is one of the highest paid guys in the company and why they trust him so much. He's safe, not afraid to put over talent, not afraid to embarrass himself, and is an overall great person to be around. He's the type of guy everybody wants to be around in the locker room.

[@robertafrazier3905]

Mad respects to Kurt Angle for that in mad respect for Corbin to be so humble

[@durrclips746]

It did nothing for his career it was pointless

[@dancinginthemoonlight4640]

​@durrclips746 he did have momentum from it like the WWE put him in a feud with seth rollins for the universal championship soon after because of the momentum he had. Its just the WWE didn't really capitalize on the momentum corbin had after beating kurt, I know seth just won the universal title and kofi too with the WWE championship but I would've atleast let corbin win a midcard title

[@lukelancaster]

As good a heel as Corbin is, he seems like such a chill dude and nothing like his ring character. It goes to show how good he is at his character work as I would have never of thought for him to be like that. Baron is such a workhorse for WWE, he doesn’t complain about anything, he does the best with any story he is given, he is safe to work with, he elevates other talent without the need to make himself look good. The only thing I wish WWE had done for him was keep his end of days finisher as a move that nobody kicked out of.

[@MHruskamusic]

In theory that was supposed to be in the case unless he was winning a world title but unless they are counting the possibility of him winning the nxt title then that is not likely to happen. It is hard to believe that someone as talented as he is only has a single US title reign to his name.

[@jesussalazar1020]

He won the gold medal and throughout his professional wrestling career has accomplished so much....all while he had a broken neck

[@bellyOfaTiger]

Not just any broken neck. A broken FREAKIN' neck!

[@chefnelsonsbbq]

He broke it multiple times in his career. Dudes a beast! 🥛

[@tomchatfield7614]

​@@bellyOfaTigerOh its true, its damn true

[@HeatseekersUK]

I know everyone wanted Angle to be retired by Cena and all that but Vince had other ideas... Corbin did the best he could and the fact everyone hates him shows what an excellent heel he is.i really enjoyed his unlucky Corbin character

[@YousefTube]

Homeless Corbin

[@gaiusperson8704]

​@@YousefTubebum-ass corbin

[@phillipwattsjr.4714]

Vince ALWAYS has "other ideas".

[@CastigadorZoom]

Met corbin a couple times and hes super kind to his fans

[@akshay28]

What a nice guy Corbin is!

[@alexbraaten420]

Corbin deserved it. Dude has been one of the most versatile heels and safest workers on the roster for a while now.

[@vipset87]

No he didn't. Kurt should've went over in his last match. In front of his family. Kurt deserved to go out better

[@junehalog024]

Corbin's outgrew his old self and he deserves his roses even more

[@HaHaHaYouFool9439]

Baron Corbin deserves more respect from fans than he gets. So many wrestlers talk about how safe and smart he is in the ring.

[@ShakeHandsWithBeef9946]

Corbin is so underrated and under appreciated

[@romxxii]

Love Corbs. He doesnt get appreciated enough. Heel GM Corbin was a solid era. He was approaching Attitude Era Mr. McMahon levels of heat.

[@WarGhoulKharas]

His son in law is The Punisher, too.

[@madladsands4631]

Kurt was the "PERCisher"

[@thehiddenone8892]

Nephew in law lol

[@dil09ful]

Nephew in law.

[@LukeValorNJPW]

Bro wrestled Kurt angle at wrestlemania in a button down shirt and suit pants. Props to looking good while beating one of the all time greatest.

[@RevinSOR13]

Baron is SEVERELY underrated.

[@6Miya9]

Bro Want too lose This man 🥲 he so great .

[@VitaminCMac]

Baron Corbin = one of the most underrated wrestlers on any roster

[@jessierivera2053]

Chill dude& he’s doing some good work down in NXT

[@anmimc]

I stopped watching wrestling a long time ago and only started paying attention again recently. I was so sad I missed out on Corbin for so long! He has quickly become one of my favorite of the “new” wrestlers I missed out on!

[@joshschneider9766]

Corbin is such a gracious human being. What a good guy.

[@JoeyBatsTheDon]

Corbin rocks, whata g

[@meethvncho]

To be able to say he retired Kurt angle .. come on now that’s the biggest honor

[@MsToca]

You would think John would have enough pull to make the Kurt Angle match happen if he wanted. Props to Corbin and Kurt though. Great interview.

[@juancortez4927]

Corbin is so underrated.

[@thomassmith3795]

And they screwed it up by doing nothing of note with Corbin. Good dude, good wrestler, terrible booking.

[@bhchen3079]

Creative let him rot for a long time , his initial gimmick suited him as a lone wolf

[@YousefTube]

retiring Kurt Angle has actually saved his job from those Nick Khan budget cuts

[@jessevollmar2689]

So proud of Baron Corbin for being there for Kurt Angle

[@jaidynturner2536]

I’m just mad they didn’t do something after he beat Kurt cause he could’ve won a title and become the biggest heel in wrestling at that time.

[@sumyunguy08]

Cena's final match vs Kurt Angle one last time. The dream.

[@Bxbymoon14]

Baron Corbin is such an awesome guy

[@D.Fay_Coe]

Actually at that time there was no better choice to retire Kurt angle. Kurt went out on his back which is old school tradition by the guy who was the most hated heel at the time. It was perfect.

[@InvisibleHotdog]

Most hated heel? lol no

[@D.Fay_Coe]

@@InvisibleHotdog at the time he def was most hated. His abuse of Kurt had people beside themselves

[@pheo1418]

Man no better choice than Corbin to retire Kurt F'N Angle? Sorry but I could think of at least 5 NXT guys more over choices at the time, Velveteen Dream Adam Cole EC3 had history with Kurt hell even Shorty G

[@YousefTube]

​@@pheo1418 meh nobody cares he was talking main roster talent i would say this that's the only reason why Corbin still have job in WWE because the guy who retired Kurt Angle turns out to be a waste of a F €Kin time so the least they could do is keeping him on a payroll

[@cmscalvert]

God bless Corbin for doing the job and taking all the heat that comes with it.

[@jaygarcia118]

Oh snap you can see me in the back lol

[@KINGCORLEONE11]

Vince wanted us to know he didn't care what fans thought about Kurt's last match

[@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716]

Doesn't change the fact that he did not deserve to retire kurt

[@robbdrop7018]

Such a great guy, it’s funny how hated he is as a heel wrestler though. Dude knows how to do his job and get any gimmick over. Mad respect

[@92mrbangbang]

What are you guys talking about thats a wrestling tradition you go out on your back it passes the torch for the next guy

[@empath1969]

Corbin should have his own channel or podcast.

[@mazsax999]

Baron Corbin is the most professional Professional Wrestler of this era.

[@nah9538]

Corbin is so humble. He got so much unnecessary hate

[@deeperspace9]

Baron is awesome, but I want to see a Boo off between him and Dom. . That would be orignal. And in the legendary moments category if pulled off correctly.

[@paxtonthrasher8108]

Ever since baron corbin started I've always thought he's a bad guy outside of wwe

[@shawnheidingsfelder8179]

Angle's a smart guy in the business. He knew Corbin could use the rub more than Cena. Vince just didn't know what to do with it afterward.

[@VoxRox1]

Corbin is such a cool guy

[@kraxosOBK]

A wrestler goes out on their back.

[@johnscilleto]

Baron Corbin doesn't the flowers that he should and I got this feeling he's gonna be one of these guys like Dolph who's just an amazing in ring worker so he just puts everyone over. In the end WWE will release him... And then he'll be signed by AEW where he'll show that he can shine. Maybe. Idk how his talk game is off script but god it would be exciting to see.

[@MSH786]

If I was Baron Corbin, then I would’ve told Vince straight up “No, I’m not gonna beat Kurt n his last match. It’s gotta be Cena.”

[@raybrozzo7850]

If you dont think Kurt Angle is a top 10 of all time then YOU need to re-watch his work and then if you still dont think it you have to realize how wrong you are at evaluations

[@suhtangwong]

Corbin is cool and all, but still... RUTHLESSSS AGRESSSIONNNN!

[@tylerdurden788]

Sometimes I am a simple man sjust like a wrestler who i would appreciate having my back in a bar fight

[@lraiolo]

Baron going back to NXT has really changed my attitude towards him. He didn’t have the stupid gimmicks the writers keep shoving down our throats. No King Corbin, sad Corbin, happy Corbin. Just give us him as a badass. Dude is in it for the business. Likable guy.

[@brokenluis1851]

Sad Corbin was his best gimmick in my opinion

[@jasonamrhein9593]

Yeah I can't blame Corbin for any of this.

[@ambarabasti8872]

Never say never. Maybe a last match with Cena will happen. It would be amazing to see them in action, even for 5 minutes, considering how old they are

[@DomMagicWand]

Thing is I agree with Corbin but I also agree that Corbin should’ve went over it’s that he went over & immediately started losing again instead of building him as a star that year should’ve been Corbin & The Fiend’s year Corbin should’ve beaten Seth at Hell in a Cell & they could’ve let The Fiend be the 1 to beat Kofi cuz at that point we didn’t need another Lesnar run

[@thecardgame_mercenary]

Ok now I want Face Corbin

[@brett7551]

Tom is an awesome dude. Sorry, Baron Corbin. His real name is Tom, he has an awesome taste in music, is super chill and was the nicest guy to meet irl.

[@BigBWolf90]

"Hey you're going over." "Wait what? Could you say that one more time?" That's not even a gloat it's sheer *"you have got to be kidding me!?!?!?"* energy

[@HumungusO_o]

Angle was the original 2 time. And did it with a broken neck!

[@amcx32]

They had him retire a goat and then have done nothing with him since

[@ryaj2356]

I mean, why does it have to be younger talent always retiring goats? Sometimes they were too good to be sent out like that.

[@dylonmullins]

It's an old school thing.

[@Gothy420]

Corbin has been underrated to me for years. Solid upper card US/IC/North American champ material. But fucking Vince's decline

[@davelinkin]

Is it me or WWE is kind of turning Corbin to Dolph of this generation 🤔, Good worker , can make any gimmick work, does what he’s told

[@freddyvengeance7930]

Love them both but this whole lead up and storyline leading to the retirement made no sense at all💯

[@Amaury5k]

I’d let kurt win his last match too. Wish Corbin was still in the ic race

[@user-ts7cx3ik4n]

Baron is sadly under estimated.

[@johnnysilverhand7361]

Happy Corbin. 😂

[@NinjaStroll]

Corbin seems like a cool dude but to have him be Kurt's last opponent is such a disrespect to one of the greatest.

[@YousefTube]

it's actually saved his Job for once

[@ITSHIM1294]

Corbin is a safe worker and Kurt needed someone like him. His knees were crumbling

[@abox6562]

2006 Kurt would’ve destroyed him.

[@kjax0630]

Man you can just see how stiff Kurts neck is when he walks

[@realtalkwiththeking7862]

Putting someone over as your last match is the passing of the torch. It should be done like that in WWE. Then can have real last match somewhere else.

[@jaybeezzy1387]

Kurt is in the AEW....

[@YousefTube]

let's face it that's the only reason why Corbin still has a job with WWE n never got future endeavor yet is because what a waste to have him be the one to retire Kurt Angle n now they have nothing better for him like they could have put Chad Gable in his place it would've been much better today

[@famousstranger8468]

Corbin going over was the right thing Kurt didn't need it

[@wikkiddeathlord7372]

He's a major dick on tv but Corbin is actually a pretty humble dude, respect to Barron Corbin

[@paulturner8920]

You go out on your back that's a wrestlers end game

[@steve2372]

Everyone would of been fine with that. Him losing to corbin in his last fight was a mistake

[@TheGoonson]

I got retired . I'm a wrestler and all the fans wanted me gone. They wanted me gone so badly that they drugged and hit in the head with a brick. Back broken and face smashed. Ten years no sunlight. People still stalk me around telling me to disappear. Stalkers. That's my life in America. My life in my hometown. My home town that's taken all the affordable housing off the market just so they can watch me live in a ditch struggling to eat solid foods with my smashed face. That's if they haven't broken into my van and poisoned it some more.

[@brettwest4664]

Wwe gives us the opposite Brock should have ended the undertaker streak but Roman did Cena should of gave kurt his last match but it was Corbin ...its letting the new generation get over ...and at those moments we were upset but in all it wotked out for those upcoming superstars

[@WeaponsArcade]

I know it's a "time honored tradition" to lose when you're leaving the company to go somewhere else but is it the same for all retirements?

[@slthjawa5062]

Angle deserved to go out against an actual opponent. Not a guy who wears street attire in the ring.

[@WillMayberry]

I’ll keep saying it. Baron needs to go to AEW. He’s stale in WWE. I think he does have untapped potential and he would stand out more there with a smaller roster

[@davidjuarez1834]

Kurt can't even move his neck anymore his head & neck are just welded to his shoulders now.
