“I mean the best part about this title is Trick just had this done for himself I think it’s pretty new like two weeks old and I’m gonna rip every ounce of fur off of this and get it back to its pristine original state where it gets the respect it deserves its on the shoulder of a true superstar, a violent superstar, a guy that hurts people and I don’t see anybody taking this off my hands in the near future,” said Baron Corbin. (20:46 onward)

Baron made his return to WWE last month and targeted Trick. Earlier, he left WWE in 2024 when his contract expired and then wrestled on indies and mostly in MLW. This comeback brought him straight into the US title picture and now made him a champion at SummerSlam 2026 on Sunday.

What more did Baron Corbin have to say about his US title win?

Baron Corbin had his goal set upon returning that he wanted to take out Trick Williams. He mentioned that collateral damage was done in this process, implying the removal of Carmelo Hayes from this angle. However, Corbin couldn’t care less now that he’s the US champion.

“I feel good. Look, I told everybody I was on a mission when I got here. I told everybody that steps in my way, they’re gonna get run over. People are gonna get hurt; there’s gonna be collateral damage. I’m not here for friends; I’m not here for any bit of history of what I did prior to this. It’s walking in the door and making my statement, and that’s what I did. Three weeks, I’m in SummerSlam, facing Trick Williams one-on-one for the U.S. Title. I told him I was taking it home, I told him there was nothing he could do, and I did it. Very simple,” said Baron Corbin. (20:07 onward)

Besides the US title, other mid-card titles also changed hands at SummerSlam. On this same night, Penta defeated Chad Gable for the Intercontinental Championship. SummerSlam Sunday truly marked a new era for the mid-card.
