WWE Star Now Officially A Free Agent
2025 is now upon us and while a new year brings new hope, for one wrestling star it means their time with WWE has finally come to an end.
In October 2024, Baron Corbin was told his WWE contract would not be extended meaning that he would leave the company after 12 years when his current deal ends.
As a WWE superstar, Corbin’s career had plenty of ups and downs. During his first NXT run, he was known for winning matches quickly. Once he joined the main roster in 2016, he won the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania 32.
That main roster run saw also Corbin win the United States Title and he also captured the Money in the Bank briefcase in 2017. Corbin also won the 2019 King of the Ring tournament and was the man who retired the legendary WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle as well. Kurt Angle was disgusted by WWE’s use of Baron Corbin after that match.
Baron Corbin Officially Done With WWE
During his second NXT run, Corbin became a NXT Tag Team Champion with Bron Breakker earlier in 2024 before both men were put on the main roster. After going back to the main roster, Corbin was only used sparingly while teaming with Apollo Crews.
Fightful Select has now noted that with the new year upon us, Baron Corbin’s WWE contract has now expired meaning that he is a free agent and able to sign elsewhere if he chooses to. Baron Corbin was one ex-WWE star backstage at AEW Worlds End.
