Since joining the WWE main roster years ago Baron Corbin has worked with some big names, and in 2017 he feuded with John Cena. The two stars faced off in a singles match at SummerSlam and it was John Cena who picked up the victory.
Even though Baron Corbin didn’t pick up the win over Cena at SummerSlam it sounds like he learned a lot from working with the former WWE Champion. During a recent appearance on the After The Bell podcast Baron Corbin talked a little bit about the conversations he had with John Cena, and how they ended up helping his career.
“I had a lot of conversations with John Cena, and he’s a guy that will give you the truth no matter what. There’s few people in this business who will do that. Two things that he’s really preached on me is always think about what’s next … a lot of guys don’t do that. When I had a match with him at SummerSlam, he said to think about Monday night. I always try to think of that.”
“The other thing that really stuck with me that John has preached, which I think helped my career immensely, was how do you take what you’re given and make it the absolute best you can,” Corbin shared. “We all get promos, we all get opportunities, we all get things that we may or may not want to do … how do I make it stand out, how do I make it amazing, how do I take it and turn it into gold? If you can do that, you’ll get longevity in your new career.”
