Former WWE Champion To Be Triple H’s Replacement Opponent At WrestleMania 33? CM Punk Responds To The Rock Calling Him After Raw, 10 Superstars For Tonight’s #1 Contenders Battle Royal on SmackDown Live Revealed

1. Baron Corbin Doesn’t Mind Being Put In A Match With Braun Strowman At WrestleMania 33

During a recent interview with The Pheonix New Times, “The Lone Wolf” Baron Corbin discussed the possibility of being put in a match with a Raw Superstar at WrestleMania 33, not caring about fan reaction & more. Below are the highlights:

On the possibility of him facing Raw’s Braun Strowman (who Corbin eliminated during the Royal Rumble match) at WrestleMania 33:

“You know, I want to keep taking SmackDown to the next level, so if they want to put me in there with a Raw guy, I’ve got no problem with that. And add him to the victories of SmackDown. We had a SmackDown victory at the Royal Rumble and at Survivor Series, SmackDown walked away the winner. And so I wouldn’t mind keeping that going.”

On not caring about fan reactions:

“No, because I don’t really care. And that’s why I’m good at what I do, that’s why I’m good at my job, that’s why I’m successful. I’ve never really cared what people think of how I’m doing or what I’m doing. If they have a problem with it, they can either change their mind or they can tell me how they feel, but it’s just falling on deaf ears.

And that’s what’s funny right now, too, is all these people who hated me and then I go out there and I think we steal the show at TLC with Kalisto and now people are like, “Oh wait, Baron Corbin’s good.” I don’t want them to change their opinion because someone else did. All those people who are negative can stay that way. It doesn’t fill my pockets more with their respect. Their respect doesn’t pay my bills. So I’m just going to continue to go out there and do what I do every single night.”
