Every WWE NXT TakeOver: Dallas Wrestler - Where Are They Now?

9. Baron Corbin

Would it really be a discussion on 2010s NXT without the 'Lone Wolf'? Baron Corbin was part of easily the night's most forgettable match, and (to make matters worse) he lost. 24 hours later, Corbin shocked everyone when he not only took part in, but won the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania 32, marking the final time that trophy was ever relevant. 

This kickstarted several years of ups and downs for the former football star. He won titles, ran Raw, and even acquired a waistcoat; all whilst fans grew increasingly sick of him on their screens. When he was let go from WWE in 2024, he was actually in the middle of a renaissance. His tag with Bron Breakker had gotten incredibly over in NXT, but Triple H simply lost interest once he returned to the main roster.

Now competing under the name Bishop Dyer, big Bazza plies his trade in MLW. At time of writing, he is one half of the company's tag champions with another former NXT hopeful, Donovan Dijak.
