Baron Corbin has returned to WWE on Smackdown.
Corbin interfered in the Trick Williams vs Carmelo Hayes
match, attacking both men and finishing them off with his
End of Days finisher. Corbin then grabbed the WWE United
States title and took a good look at it before dropping it
on Williams, suggesting that it will be his first order of
business.
Corbin was released from WWE in late 2024 after spending 12
years with the company, starting with NXT. Since leaving
WWE, the former football player kept himself busy, wrestling
on the independent scene and mostly in MLW where he was a
tag team champion with another former WWE talent, Donovan
Dijak.
His return to WWE has been rumored for a few weeks and comes
at a time when TKO is restructuring contracts for many of
its talent, offering pay cuts to hang around.
