Baron Corbin was recently interviewed by TheState.com to promote this weekend’s NXT live events. During the interview, Corbin spoke about having his first-ever “WrestleMania Moment” this year.
Corbin claimed that the feeling you get from an intense crowd as big as this year’s WrestleMania is “just surreal.”
“It was unbelievable. We had over 100,000 people there. I was the last one standing in the ring and I got the trophy. My family was up front. It was pretty surreal. The noise, the energy, the atmosphere was untouchable. The feeling you get from that is just unreal.”
Additionally, Corbin spoke about what he feels NXT means to the wrestling business.
“NXT has grown immensely in the last year, year and a half to where we’re traveling now, we’re doing overseas tours. The atmosphere we get with NXT and NXT fans, they’re a die-hard group. They care deeply about NXT. It’s a very unique experience when you come to it. It’s like when you find that local band you love playing at a small place and there are 50 people there. You continue to watch them and it grows to arenas. That’s what NXT is doing.”
