Baron Corbin
Mark Henry was recently the subject of a WWE.com editorial about how he’s helped recruit some of today’s stars including Baron Corbin, Braun Strowman and Bianca Belair; you can read a few excerpts from Corbin’s portion below:
“He came in and thought I had something special. He told me I had a good look, the way I moved was good. He really helped mold me in those early days, which helped the evolution of who I am and what I do. When you have a guy of his caliber come to you and tell you they see something in you … if that doesn’t light a fire, nothing will.”
“It’s not a stamp of approval. It’s more like, ‘If you want it, you can get it.’ When he says he sees those things, it puts it on you to succeed. It’s motivation, not ‘he’s gonna make it,’ and you coast and rock and roll through with no struggles. It’s a fire that he lights.”
Dusty Rhodes Classic
For what it’s worth, WWE changed the bracket for the upcoming Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. While it looks to be a minor change, the first bracket first had TM61 versus Authors of Pain on the left side while Sanity vs Tino Sabbatelli & Riddick Moss was on the right.
Those matches have now switched sides of the brackets, changing up the potential semifinals matches in the tournament:
