Baron Corbin got to hang out with Taylor Swift and saw some similarities between her and ‘The Tribal Chief’ in Roman Reigns. Speaking with SEScoops correspondent Scott Fishman for VInsider, Corbin recalled how great Taylor Swift was to interact with at a Kansas City Chiefs game who Corbin is a massive fan of.

“The magnitude that she brings to everything and anything. It was awesome, but the biggest takeaway for me is when you are around her, she doesn’t act like a star. She acts like a normal amazing person. She is very sweet. As soon as I was introduced to her, she gives you a big hug. Then you’re like, “This is crazy. She is the biggest star on the planet right now.” To see someone so humble and how they carry themselves. In that way, it’s nice to see. It really teaches you that when people have an ego they shouldn’t.”

Corbin said how great it was for someone as popular as Taylor to not have an ego and Baron noted that Reigns was like that for the WWE locker room.

“It really teaches you that when people have an ego they shouldn’t. You look at how the biggest star in the world acts. You should be the same. It’s the same reason I say in our locker room that if Roman Reigns doesn’t have an ego, nobody on this roster should. He is the standard at the top.”

Corbin did say that he did thik there are similarities between wrestling fans and Swifties, noting that both fanbases are diehards. Both have a tendency to defend their cherished star with guns ablazing.

Swift shares added pro wrestling ties besides meeting up with Corbin. She notoriously babysat Jeff Jarrett’s kids with Jarrett noting how great Taylor was to his family during such a difficult time.

AEW’s Jeff Jarrett will always appreciate the efforts of pop sensation Taylor Swift who helped his family out during a very dark time in their lives.

Before becoming one of the most successful names in music history, Swift would babysit the Jarrett children. Speaking to Live At 9:00, Jarrett spoke about how the Shake It Off star did plenty to support the family after Jeff’s first wife passed away.

“She is a friend of the family. [She was] very good to my family during a very, very dark period when my wife got sick and passed away. But Taylor was like a big sister and came over and took the girls, baking cookies and just out at the house. I can’t say enough good things about Taylor… Just a sweetheart.”

Jarrett added that since Swift was never on the “Jeff Jarrett payroll” she was never technically a babysitter. Double-J also joked that people may not be aware that she has done rather well for herself as Swift continues to be a leading name in music.

Taylor Swift & Pro-Wrestling

While Taylor Swift has yet to step foot in the ring, the music icon has had her name tied to wrestling over the years. In 2014, Swift was one of several celebrities to wish those who serve the best via a video message during that year’s Tribute to the Troops. More recently, Grayson Waller has found himself feuding with Swift’s fans after rating the Grammy Award-winner a “six.” Waller has even dared Travis Kelce to defend Swift’s honor at WrestleMania 40. 

During the post-Fastlane press conference, WWE Women’s Champion IYO SKY was asked about Swift in a question that divided fans. While many saw it as a harmless bit of fun, some took issue with this question and SKY was visibly confused as to why she was being asked about a non-wrestler. 

While fans may never see Swift in a wrestling ring, we know to never say never in this industry. Until then, Swift will continue to be a global-recognized megastar in entertainment, with the recent Eras tour further cementing her success.

• Trish Stratus Acknowledges Taylor Swift Mirroring Her Pose at SuperBowl

WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus recently acknowledged the 14-time Grammy Award winner Taylor Swift, who had a great time at Sunday night’s SuperBowl. 

Trish Stratus, a multi-time Women’s Champion is one of the greatest to ever step foot inside the ring. Her impressive athleticism and charisma, have left a memorable mark on the industry. She emerged as a trailblazer in the 2000s and captivated the fans with her in-ring prowess and alluring persona. She is a 7-time Women’s Champion which is a testament to her greatness. Well, she recently recognized Taylor Swift’s gesture at Super Bowl LVIII.

This year’s Super Bowl LVIII saw a thrilling finish as the Kansas City Chiefs emerge victorious. At the conclusion of the fourth quarter, the Chiefs were tied 19-19 with the San Fransisco 49ers. The match went to overtime and in the last second the Chiefs scored and earned the lead and captured the Super Bowl championship. 

Among some popular wrestling stars and celebs, was Taylor Swift. She was also spotted in the crowd enjoying the high-stakes match. 

Taylor Swift grabbed the attention when she pulled off the signature pose of WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus.

Trish Stratus had returned to WWE last year and had quite the run. She competed at WrestleMania, Night of Champions, and Payback Premium Live Events and was involved in a storyline with Becky Lynch before departing.

The Superstars of WWE have weighed in as to whether it’ll be the San Francisco 49ers or the Kansas City Chiefs who stand tall at Super Bowl LVIII. 

The Big Game is mere hours away with excitement for the Super Bowl at a fever pitch. The match will take place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, which WWE fans will recognize as the host of SummerSlam 2021. 

WWE Stars Give Their Picks for Super Bowl LVIII: 49ers or Chiefs?

Football fans have their picks for who’ll be winning Super Bowl LVIII, as do the WWE Superstars. In a recent video, the Superstars were asked for their predictions for the Big Game. 

In the 49ers’ corner, the team has Jey Uso, who made it clear he’s red and gold ’til he’s dead and cold and threw in a YEET for good measure. San Francisco’s own ‘Dirty’ Dominik Mysterio is unsurprisingly backing the 49ers, as is the 2024 Women’s Royal Rumble match winner Bayley and Alpha Academy’s Otis. 

The Kansas City Chiefs have some considerable star power of their own, in addition to Taylor Swift. R-Truth is backing the Chiefs, while Baron Corbin was practically offended anyone thought he wouldn’t be rooting for the team. Carlito is also backing the 49ers, as is WWE SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis. WWE Raw announcer Samantha Irvin is also backing the 49ers.

Not everyone had a clear-cut favorite, as Byron Saxton said that Taylor Swift was going to win the game herself. WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Asuka and Kairi Sane simply laughed off the question. When the pair were asked the question in 2020 (which again featured the 49ers and the Chiefs), the Kabuki Warriors made it clear that they didn’t care. 

There’s some WWE involvement happening right now at Super Bowl LVIII… 

Seth Rollins in Captain America: Brave New World

The pop sensation continues to be a force to be reckoned with in the music scene and has been spotted in recent months supporting her boyfriend Kansas City Chief Travis Kelce. During the Chiefs’ most recent game, Corbin was part of a selfie that included Swift.

It’s not just WWE that has its eye on Taylor Swift. Recently, Tony Khan revealed that Wembley asked him to have a quick set-up for All In 2024 in order to allow more dates for Taylor Swift’s tour. When AEW’s Claudio Castagnoli was asked about Swift possibly appearing at the August 2024 event, the Swiss wrestler said “I wouldn’t put it past her!” 

AEW already has an ‘in’ with Taylor Swift in the form of their Director of Business Development Jeff Jarrett. In interviews, Jeff has revealed that Swift used to babysit his kids and has often said that Swift was a kind, genuine person to the Jarrett family.
