The popular streamer 'JDfromNY' recently shared a post on X/Twitter praising the renowned 'Trivium' band regarding their latest hit single. Baron Corbin took notice and shared his love for the band with JD by stating the following in his reply:

"That’s my boy!!!! They are so good. I was so pumped he was part of my killer music!!"

Baron Corbin thinks AEW could benefit from recent WWE decision

It was recently reported that WWE's PLEs will be featured on ESPN after the deal with Peacock expires in 2026. Fans in the USA would have to pay $30 every month for a PLE, which would be more than what they are currently paying.

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Baron Corbin said that many fans may not pay that amount and look to AEW as an alternative:

"They're rocking the boat, they're kind of p***ing some people off, some people love it. You can't win, obviously, everyone with every decision you make, but I think that creates opportunity for AEW. I think for someone who is not going to pay the $30 a month for ten PLE's from WWE for ESPN, maybe they're looking for an alternative," Corbin said.

The former WWE Superstar also said that AEW has been on a great run, and they could get some followers from the Stamford-based promotion as well.
