Baron Corbin started his career with World Wrestling Entertainment in 2012 and went on to make a huge name for himself by winning several titles. The former United States Champion's contract expired in November last year, and much to everyone's surprise, WWE did not renew it. Since then, Corbin has made appearances for different independent wrestling promotions.

Corbin was recently announced for a huge debut in MLW (Major League Wrestling). He competed in the 40-man Battle Riot match on April 5, 2025. The Lone Wolf debuted in the company by helping his former WWE peer, Dijak.
