Baron Corbin appears to be on the verge of a WWE return, with industry sources telling Fightful Select that he is either already signed or will be imminently.
Fightful Select has learned that Corbin has finished up his obligations with companies he had been working with regularly, including MLW, where he had been teaming with Donovan Dijak as the Skyscrapers. Those spoken to within the industry believe a WWE deal is essentially done.
Dave Meltzer first reported last weekend that he had heard of the possibility of Corbin returning to WWE. Fightful Select subsequently reported that the return had been internally discussed and rumored within the company in recent weeks.
Corbin, who also worked under the name Bishop Dyer following his WWE departure, spent years on the main roster as a multi-time Intercontinental and United States Champion before his release. No official announcement has been made.
