Baron Corbin is a well-rounded performer who remained a loyal asset to WWE until his release last November. His departure raised many eyebrows, as he had been drafted to the main roster following WrestleMania XL.

The Lone Wolf's return to WWE NXT helped him earn the admiration and respect of the fans. During his stint in the former black-and-gold brand, Corbin impressed the fans with his superior in-ring skills and captivating character work.

Although the former King of the Ring is no longer with WWE, his adventures in pro wrestling are far from over. Baron Corbin was recently spotted backstage at AEW Worlds End 2024, which fueled speculations that he could be headed to All Elite Wrestling after his 90-day non-compete clause is over.

Corbin's potential arrival in All Elite Wrestling could lead to some intriguing storyline possibilities. In this article, let's look at three things Baron Corbin could do if he joined All Elite Wrestling.


#3. Baron Corbin could join forces with The Don Callis Family

The Don Callis Family is currently one of the most despicable factions in the pro wrestling industry. The stable comprises Konosuke Takeshita, Kyle Fletcher, Trent Beretta, Lance Archer, and Brian Cage, all managed by the wicked Don Callis.

If Baron Corbin joins the AEW roster, he would be a perfect fit for the Don Callis Family. The former WWE United States Champion is known for being an excellent heel who can generate genuine heat from the audience.

Considering the quality of his recent in-ring performances, the 40-year-old star would not look out of place standing alongside the rest of the group. Callis would be delighted to acquire Corbin's services, which could further help the faction strengthen its grip on AEW.

#2. The Lone Wolf could target the TNT Championship

Baron Corbin bagged a lot of accolades during his time in WWE. The 40-year-old star won the King of the Ring tournament, Money in the Bank briefcase, and the NXT Tag Team Championship.

Unfortunately, Corbin could not get his hands on many singles championships in WWE. Aside from the United States Title, the former Constable did not taste any singles gold in the Titanland.

Baron could head to AEW to make up for the lack of singles championships in his collection. Corbin could particularly target Daniel Garcia, who currently holds the TNT Championship.

The former King of the Ring would be a perfect threat to Garcia, who would be eager to defend his title against a star with such an intimidating presence. The Red Death could be the David to Corbin's Goliath, and the duo could work together to create a compelling storyline.

After years of being overlooked, Baron Corbin could finally hold a singles title by capturing the TNT Championship.

#1. Baron Corbin could set his sights on Jon Moxley

Baron Corbin was portrayed as a heel for the majority of his WWE career. However, The Lone Wolf could explore a new creative direction if he ends up in All Elite Wrestling soon. The former United States Champion could debut as a babyface and go after the reigning AEW World Champion, Jon Moxley.

Moxley and Corbin are no strangers to each other. They battled each other numerous times in WWE during 2016-19. At WrestleMania 33, The Purveyor of Violence successfully defended his Intercontinental Championship against The Lone Wolf.

The former Constable was a recurring thorn in Moxley's path when The Shield reunited in 2018. It has been nearly five years since the two fought against each other, and Corbin's rumored AEW debut could allow them to reignite their rivalry.

Baron Corbin could bring the fight to the Ace of AEW, who has been an unstoppable force for the past few months. Corbin could stand up against the dominance of The Death Riders, joining other top babyfaces in their war against the heel faction.

Corbin's continued resistance could lead to a singles encounter with Jon Moxley, where the duo could finally settle their unfinished business.
