In a two-part interview with Jim Varsallone of The Miami Herald, WWE NXT Superstar Baron Corbin commented on WWE NXT, the plans for his character and more and noted that his stint in the NFL helped him establish the abilities and the qualities that he needed to be successful in the WWE and helped him transition from football.

Corbin talked about how physically similar WWE NXT is to the NFL and that while he doesn’t miss pro football, because he loves what he is doing now, he misses the family atmosphere of college.

Corbin said that the character is an extension of himself, he rides a motorcycle outside of NXT, there’s the motocycle sound at the start of his theme and said that the vest he wears to the ring is something he made himself, calling the character a real exaggeration of himself and that he wants to ride his motorcyle to the ring for his entrance.
