What I was getting at was that Baron's football background was about the only thing about him that I could see WWE liking. Why do I think they'd like that? Because I remember when they were dreaming up the Performance Center. They had grand plans for it and had hoped that it could lure athletes from other sports, with football players being particularly coveted. He and Mojo Rawley have both gotten some big NXT pushes (though Mojo's has stalled). I don't know what WWE saw in them other than that they came from football. Mojo's push wasn't THAT big, I remember him only beating jobbers with his highest profile wins being the likes of CJ Parker and Oliver Grey, and losing pretty decisively against anyone of relevance. . Yeah, he basically went around and squashed jobbers and that's about all he did from what I remember.

He looks like he was getting ready to go home from work an hour early, only to be told some guys from Corporate just showed up.

Trigger from Only Fools & Horses. He should call everyone Dave in promos Only if eventually, a returning Batista says "You rang?" and powerbombs him.

I think he has a bad look. Maybe he'd look better if he cut his hair or shaved his head. I think his long hair looks really bad on him because he's losing his hair. Also, his chest tattoo looks bad. Can I pile on? He doesn't have a very impressive physique. Why are they so high on him? Because he came from football? He is a pretty large guy, deceptively big. He's as thick as Rhyno but 6-8 inches taller. That size, can move, has a killer finish, I see why they're trying with him.

He doesn't have that rugged, rough around the edges look that would go with his character.

Trigger from Only Fools & Horses. THIS. People I know can't see it but it hits me in the face every time. Also makes his large fan girl followers funny since no one called Trigger a heart throb.

I don't know why, but I keep getting a John Snow "I'm about to cry but I don't know why" look from him.

He looks like he was shooting hockey pucks in the street and accidentally hit Coach Bombay's limo.

There's plenty of guys who I don't like but can see why others like him. I have no idea what anyone sees in Baron Corbin. Agreed. At first, I have to admit I was pumped just because the End of Days seems like one of those moves that can be done in different cool ways. But he, as a character, is completely flatlining.
