Booker T – ‘Baron Corbin Is Where He Needs To Be In WWE NXT’

Baron Corbin is right where he belongs as part of WWE NXT, according to NXT commentator Booker T.

Corbin returned to the gold brand earlier this year and unsuccessfully challenged for the NXT Championship at the NXT Gold Rush event in June.

On a recent edition of his “Hall of Fame” podcast, Booker T spoke about Corbin’s return to NXT compared to his tenure on the main roster. He said,

“I think on the main roster, sometimes you can get stuck in a rut and find those moments where…I hate this term right here, ‘We ain’t got nothing for you. When you started hearing that, it’s a problem. For Baron Corbin, to be back in ‘NXT,’ to be able to reinvent himself all over again…those packages, they go a long way. 

“And for me, I’ve always been a Baron Corbin fan. Always been, just because he’s been that heel’s heel for me. He hasn’t been the guy that wanted to get any fanfare being a heel. He’s always just trying to play his role, and play that role to the best of his ability.”

“I think the “Lone Wolf” character, especially on ‘NXT,’ being back on NXT where it started all over again, where it originated, I love the idea.”

Corbin competed on last week’s episode of WWE NXT with a victory over Andre Chase.
