Looks like you’re having a fun time in Detroit Chris! 👋🏽🇨🇦

[@TimLoyalToWifeHaterFreeZoneA]

Love It ChrisVanBliet Bro.

[@thegameslave2]

Wow, just this short interview really showed one of the reasons why Corbin has been in WWE for so long. Well spoken, nice, professional, complimentary, safe and easy to work with. Good for him, dude. Hope his time in NXT helps his character. Good chat.

[@bigdaddyroy5382]

Very good take. I completely agree with you but also, I think he's still with wwe cause he's almost universally hated and gets all kinds of heat. He's almost the perfect heel.

[@kenterminateddq5311]

​​@@bigdaddyroy5382plus, Corbin is arguably the safest wrestler in the WWE roster right now. I think that's why everyone wanted to work with the former United States Champion.

[@boss_pedal]

The longer I've been a wrestling fan the more I really appreciate someone like Baron Corbin. What he does isn't easy. Constantly having to reinvent yourself, not necessarily always getting to be the "cool" character and having to get all of these different things over, being the butt of the joke. It's an amazing achievement of someone that came from a pure sports background to be known for character work. He also just seems like one of the coolest dudes. So happy for all of his success.

[@CamericaMuscle]

💯

[@ejmovement1613]

He has cool points for being a Metalhead for sure.

[@tna4lyfe158]

And the guy he retired also came from a sports background and became one of the most entertaining personalities of all time. It's interesting how things work out sometimes. If i could just chill and hang out with any wwe superstars i wanted, it would easily be corbin, the new day, and the o.c.

[@stevemelnyk7480]

@@ejmovement1613 Yeah, metalheads rule. We're like throwbacks to when music was great 20-25 years ago.

[@quadplays924]

This interview was short but gave me all the reasons to like this guy. So much respect for him. He is one of WWE’s constants. A guy that can work safely with anyone, and look good doing it.

[@mcpunk817]

I love how he was humble when brining up the ratings. He appreciated being part of the segment and then gave Roman his flowers for what he has done. Didnt have to do that. Seems like a good dude

[@alexubel]

It really sucks that they took away his protected finisher status. No one should have ever kicked out of the End of Days. I really hope this new direction he is going in actually leads to a good pay off for him.

[@Red_dead_Redemption_4_Life]

Well anyone but roman lol

[@noerodriguez3878]

As short as this inter iew was it was a really great interview and Corbin gave great inciteful answers

[@iamtorryian]

Corbin has always been a good dude. Company guy, does what he's told and tries to make the best of every opportunity he's given. Have always admired the fact that he doesn't care about being the cool heel. His job is to make people hate him and he's damn good at it. He's the definition of understanding the assignment.

[@stevemelnyk7480]

I think that Corbin's biggest drawback has always been that he doesn't have the physique that the WWE higher-up's tend to prefer to get a big push. Corbin's build is average, if that but looking at him, he may actually look worse if he had muscles. Some guys like Corbin, Nakamura etc just wouldn't look right with the bodybuilder look. I think that Corbin has always been an underrated talker as well. He has some good trash talk from time to time.

[@chilliwraslin2510]

Baron Corbin is so good as a heel that you forget that he plays a character.

[@Dannystateofmind]

Corbin is one of those dudes that can pull off different gimmicks, safe worker, makes others look great!! Seems like a chill guy as well. Wish him nothing but the best honestly

[@mattmorgan2534]

I’ve never heard him speak before this (out of character I mean), and boy is he as humble as hell! Excellent speaker too! There’s another guy I’ll be rooting for nothing but good things for. I loved how he spoke about his family, as well as appreciating the opportunities in front of him. All of it, VERY authentically said!

[@kimkom5648]

i remember his finisher was a legit finisher that no one kicks out off but it got broken ... wish it stayed as a no kicked out finisher

[@MADGUNSMONSTER]

I think it was called "The End of Days".

[@zoomtitan]

Only one person has kicked out so it’s still a guaranteed victory

[@zackwyatt169]

You act like it gets kicked out of every time

[@anasshahid224]

Great interview as always Chris 😊 Happy to see Baron Corbin on NXT, he’s been great these past few months, bringing back the Lone Wolf version of his character 🐺 🫡

[@AlfredFJones1776]

Corbin seems like such a cool dude.

[@logannarayanasamy9061]

I don't care what people say and think, I have been saying this even before Constable Corbin, this guy is one of my favorite wrestlers. Underated, mostly overlooked. But Corbin has been just great at whatever he has been given to do.

[@GhostSSB]

Theres the REAL happy corbin!! Such a nice guy!!

[@FalconCooper]

I want to believe the latest WWE European Tour pushed the company to do something with him, I don't think it was covered a lot but before the show in Paris, the biggest French wrestling KZbinr encouraged everyone to show as much support as possible for Corbin. The result ? He got an insane pop (Heck it was comparable to Rollins') and everyone cheered him during his match against Rick Boogs. You could feel they were switching roles during it since the whole arena was for Corbin, he even ended up winning the match, breaking his losing streak ! After the match he took the time to go to every side of the ring to take a bow and thank the crowd. You could see he was very emotional. I wish him the best, he deserves it.

[@thomaswatt99]

Baron Corbin deserves so much in wwe he would be cool as a face

[@AJMashUps2863]

I really love Corbin, he was the Damian Priest in 2016-17 until Vince cancelled his MITB cashin. But instead of leaving for AEW (just like Cody), Corbin decided to reinvent himself in NXT ❤❤❤

[@doomi4055]

Next NXT Champion or beat “Dirty Dom” Dominik Mysterio or North American Championship.

[@erikrodriguez2848]

Aew wasn’t around yet when Cody left Cody left to basically come back as this person and wrestler we all love he did that in a lot of different wrestling promotions and he had the nightmare in Aew

It would be interesting to see Corbin go full-on Bam Bam Bigelow by getting a full head tattoo. Would be a new look for him and maybe he might finally be pushed more. But not sure how it would look on him.

Personal fan advice for Baron Corbin to improve himself in-ring: - Your swing around the Ring Post to re-enter the ring from off-sides, please vary it up so that you don't always enter/exit from the same angle. He keeps entering the ring from the same angle and it gets predictable, which is bad for him as a combatant because it gets TOO predictable. - Please incorporate more Football moves into your wrestling arsenal, there's got to be more things you can do besides a bog-standard spear. - Really incorporate your boxing skills into your repertoire. It sucks that we don't get to see what you can do as a boxer in the squared circle. There's really no reason not to. You brag about being a Golden Gloves Boxer. Show, don't tell! - Your finishers where you swing people around, you're really good at that; find some new moves you can do that swing or spin people around before you slam them. - You don't have any submission moves in your arsenal that you rely on, that seems to be a major weakness in your game, find something that works for you or something that can exploit the advantages of your large frame. - You need to learn more kicking moves to effectively utilize your long legs. There's a Black-Belt in Tae Kwon Do already in NXT, you might want to ask her for advice.

[@zackwyatt169]

He’s fine as is he don’t need to do anything new he ain’t no submission guy he’s a brawler

Well, since Cena couldn't retire Angle (since it was Corbin), then Angle should retire CENA when his time comes. Angle handed Cena his first loss in 2002, so whenever Cena finally retires, Angle should put him over with a win!
