– WWE’s website has a new interview with Baron Corbin, who previously played for the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals practice squad, has three Golden Glove boxing titles and several grappling championships. Corbin commented on indie wrestlers coming into NXT and facing Samoa Joe at NXT “Takeover: Brooklyn” this weekend:
โI look at these guys that come in with a name, but itโs on the internet. Itโs someoneโs opinion. Itโs created with these fan bases of people who are diehards and watched them with 12 or 15 people in a high school gym. Theyโre nobodies. Iโm the real deal. The NFL, boxing, jiu-jitsu, I did that. Iโm proven at what I can do.โ
โI have a little respect for Joe. But I had just beat up two guys. Heโs a veteran and knows how to take an opportunity. He got in a lucky sleeper hold. Iโve only used what I needed to in order to win. Now, I can go deeper into my arsenal. Samoa Joe doesnโt know whatโs coming. That means Iโm in control. You have no choice in what happens. If youโre in my way, youโre done.โ
