Baron Corbin was picked as a free agent during the 2023 WWE Draft. He can go wherever WWE wants to put him at this point, even NXT. The Lone Wolf had a match in the developmental brand this week, and he has the bruise to prove it.

We previously reported that the idea to bring main roster talent to NXT came from WWE CEO Nick Khan. This is a way to boost ratings, to possibly earn a larger payout when their next television rights deal comes around.

While showing off a gnarly bruise on his neck, Baron Corbin included a caption that claims he didn’t even know how he got that mark.

I don’t even know how this happens.

Baron Corbin also used a line from Tommy Boy in the video. He might not have read the lines as well as Chris Farley did after David Spade’s character whacked him with a 2×4 during their roadside fight, but it was still a fun little video.

We can only hope that Baron Corbin’s bruise goes away. After all, it looks like some really violent stuff went down to cause that kind of mark on his neck.
