Kurt Angle Disappointed by Baron Corbin's WWE Exit

Baron Corbin, whose real name is Tom Pestock, is leaving WWE after more than a decade, a decision that has drawn widespread disappointment from fans and wrestling legends alike. WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle, who lost his final match to Corbin at WrestleMania 35, expressed regret over WWE's failure to capitalize on Corbin's potential. Angle believed that Corbin was undervalued and that the company should have further developed his character following his victory at WrestleMania and his subsequent win in the 2019 King of the Ring. Corbin himself shared that he wished he had become a world champion to honor Angle's gesture. Despite his achievements, such as winning the United States Championship, Corbin remained a mid-card performer and did not break into WWE's top-tier stars. His departure signifies the end of a notable 12-year run, leaving both Corbin and Angle questioning the creative decisions made during his career.
