Is he right, Yea Forums? >I think a couple of things helped me; No. 1 being in stadiums, being around that large crowd [from playing in the NFL] and being around that pressure when your job depends on it. When you are in the NFL your job depends on how good you play. If you are not playing good enough you go home. You no longer have a paycheck, so I think that helps me get ready. It teaches me to deal with the pressure of those things.
>I also look at it from where I want to go not where I am at. I train and I try to develop myself to where I want to be so that I am ready when I want to get there so getting to that WrestleMania match it was what I had already trained for so I was ready. The nervousness was there in a good way not in a bad way. I think debuting like that, I fit the WWE roster mold much better than the NXT mold. It’s a different style. It’s cool because it was the underground, cool, heavy metal band. I was so different than anybody else. I was a bit more old school in the aspect of I’m not doing moonsaults, even though I could do them. I dove for 10 years. I can do a moonsault off the top rope if I need to but I don’t.
>What’s crazy is when people say, “I don’t want these guys to get called up so that they can be misused.” Nobody is being misused. They’re going to be given opportunities; they’re either going to make them successful or not, that is just the way it is. There is a reason why NXT and Triple H has built an amazing thing down there because it gets guys ready to come down here [to the main roster].
>He’s getting guys ready to come to the main roster and sometimes people get called up they may not be absolutely ready or whatever the situation didn’t fit the way that they originally thought it would be, but it’s just going to take time to rebuild or figure it out, which is on the guys. When they get called up it is up to the guys to find success. John Cena is somebody who has always preached that. It’s on you, it’s not on anyone else. If guys are being misused it’s not anybody’s fault but their own. They have to find an avenue to get successful, to get creative, to pitch ideas, and it’s hard because you do get lost in the shuffle here. There are a lot of guys that I think do great things when given the opportunity but it’s all about fighting and finding that opportunity.
>That’s a sad story for a lot of people nowadays. If something doesn’t work it’s always someone else’s fault or nobody wanted them to do it. It’s just one of those things, it’s like if you really wanted to get something and really go, people are going to appreciate it even if it takes longer than expected. I had hoped to be world champion by now; it’s taken me three-and-a-half years. It’ll come, it’s just going to take that grind. Some guys have been doing it for six months and are like well, it’s not going to work out for me because I’m not champion. It’s a grind. Anything worth doing is a grind so it’s that kind of thing where you can’t feel sorry for yourself and you have to keep pushing.
>I think it crosses everyone’s mind, but I think it’s a good thing because it means that you care about what you’re doing but the thing is you just can’t dwell off of it. You can’t blame someone else for that. If someone else gets an opportunity that you want, hey, good for them. However they got it, they got it. Whether I cry because they got it because they didn’t deserve it or they didn’t earn it doesn’t concern me.

>it's a "WWE star damage controls for the company at the behest of vince" episode Stop falling for shill tactics
He's right, you only have yourself to blame if you think you can make it big in modern WWE.
Dylan Sanchez
>be EC3 >called up with nothing to do >squash match against Ambrose >Crowd knows its a squash, boo EC3 >blame EC3 sure
Aaron Butler
Zack Ryder was more over than The Rock at some point. Instead of strapping the rocket on him, Vince put him in a cuck angle that involved Kane.
Wonder why that is Ryder's fault?
Colton Ross
This, I like Corbin but he's daft if he thinks his success is because he worked for it, and not because Vince likes im and gave him 100 chances that other people don't get when they fail the first time.
Ryan Roberts
What a fucking retard lmao
Jonathan Long
because Zack is a grown man who spends his paycheck buying old WWF toys, whines on twitter instead of going up to Vince and speaking face to face, and he makes it abundantly clear that he's just happy to be in wwe and will be content with a 24 hour IC title reign
He acted like a cuck, so he got booked like a cuck
God, NXT really is a cult that just brainwashes you to accept WWE. How many of these guys just slurp WWE cock. I actually think that Corbin could do way better if he was literally anywhere else.
Elijah King
Why should he try when all it does is get him buried beyond belief? He got himself over and was completely squashed for doing it. Hawkins even said in a shoot that the whole locker room saw what happened to Zack and realized that the brass ring was bullshit. No one gets over unless Vince decides it.
Owen Anderson
>What’s crazy is when people say, “I don’t want these guys to get called up so that they can be misused.” Nobody is being misused. They’re going to be given opportunities NXT right now is a farm for the midlowcard. With the exception of Jasethy, not a single NXT champion has been given the opportunity to carry the company on his back. All are midcards after being unceremoniously humilliated when they dared to try to get over
Big E: comedy shitter Bo Dallas: LEL Neville: Made the transition after they treated him like shit Sami Zayn: a fucking joke manager Owens: demoted to NXT after being humilliated to hell and back on every feud. Balor: midcard tier at best Joe: LEL Nakamura: midcard tier at best Roode: LEL Mcintyre: Completely dropped the ball on him, gone from tv. Almas: a complete jobber Black: Never on tv and when he is, it's for a fucking joke of a storyline
It's like Vince thinks Haitch "trains everyone wrong as a joke" in NXT.
Jack Morris
Nak, Balor and Owen's all got the strap though, even if only for a short time. But you make an excellent point.
Thomas Perry
You're right, doesn't change the fact that Zack is a chump.
Brandon Clark
>waugh
Alexander Cooper
But Corbin, you are a failed NXT guy too
Jonathan Moore
Okay but who going to blame for decrease ratings and tarps
Caleb Anderson
>what happened to Zack and realized that the brass ring was bullshit Zack unironically proves Baron's point though. Both Zack and Stone Cold have legitimately said that Zack's burial was his own fault, not Vince's. The very second Zack's push began to falter, instead of going to creative or talking to Vince to pitch ideas to keep it going strong, or to even ASK what he could do to go better - he sat back and let it all flop. He showed zero initiative to stay on top once he got there.
Cameron Ward
Nakamura still hasn't been world champ in WWE
Henry Ramirez
That’s just plain ignorant. Why are aewtists obsessed with only the shitty wwe talent?
Xavier Russell
I honestly hope he dies in a violent car crash on his way to the next show
John Baker
Only Themselves To Blame AKA not sucking Vince's dick hard enough
Joseph Cox
But user, nobody even mentioned AEW?
Chase Green
What's the point of going to Vince? Dean is the most recent example of someone going to Vince and not being listened at all. Actually Dean is the proof that Corbin's point is bullshit. He tried everything to keep his push going all the way back to 2016. But Vince couldn't careless and let him cool down until people was chanting CM Punk in his matches.
Jonathan Gutierrez
Does Zack Ryder have a lifesize cardboard cutout of himself?
