It was reported on Friday evening that Baron Corbin, Indi Hartwell, and Tegan Nox are leaving WWE. Fightful.com noted that while it is not confirmed, there is internal speculation within WWE that Corbin’s contract runs through the end of the year.

It appears that WWE’s decision to part ways with Corbin was not planned out far in advance. Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful.com noted that WWE “had Corbin at a Netflix commercial/filming shoot six days before he was told his contract wouldn’t be extended.” Corbin replied to Sapp with “That is a fact.”

Corbin also wrote the following: “Just want to let everyone know I see all the messages and tweets. I appreciate it more than you know. It defn helps!”

Other WWE stars in attendance for the Netflix shoot were said to have included Corbin, Iyo SKY, Kairi Sane, Motor City Machine Guns, Elektra Lopez, and members of the LWO.
