Baron Corbin has implied that he has left WWE. He tweeted the following:
“That’s all she wrote folks. It’s been real and I appreciate everyone who supported me.”
After Corbin tweeted this, Sean Ross Sapp confirmed that Corbin is indeed done with WWE:
“Baron Corbin was given notice by WWE that his contract will expire and will not be re-signed.”
It should be noted that Corbin isn’t the only wrestler who is leaving WWE. Sapp further reported that Indi Hartwell and Tegan Nox are leaving the company as well:
“The claim within WWE is that the three departures – Indi Hartwell, Tegan Nox, and Baron Corbin — are the only ones leaving in this round”
Corbin joined the main roster again earlier this year as part of the WWE Draft, becoming a regular on SmackDown. Though he was initially hesitant about being teamed with Apollo Crews, he eventually grew to appreciate the partnership.
Despite this, WWE Creative hasn’t given much focus to Corbin and Crews on TV. Since his last televised match on the July 19 episode of SmackDown, Corbin has been absent from TV matches.
He’s been present at several SmackDown tapings and is not dealing with any injuries. Recently, Corbin participated in dark matches with The O.C. and Los Garza.
According to Fightful Select, WWE officials lost interest in Corbin and Crews:
“Originally, Baron Corbin wasn’t sold on the idea of being in a tag team with Apollo Crews, but he grew to like it. However, WWE creative hasn’t been keen on booking them, and the two have worked several dark matches in recent months.”
