Baron Corbin was recently interviewed by Sam Roberts on the Not Sam Wrestling Podcast. During the interview, he spoke on a wide variety of topics.
One of these topics was about the time that he hit Becky Lynch with the ‘End Of Days’. This came at Extreme Rules, where he and Lacey Evans faced off against Becky and Seth Rollins.
Here is what Corbin said about the death threats that he received afterward (h/t to Wrestling INC for the quotes below):
“I was curious about the reaction. It was one of the craziest reactions that I have ever heard. When you stand behind her and I’m getting up behind her and when I snatch her and the fans are yelling, it’s almost dead quiet for a second. They couldn’t believe I had done it. They popped and then booed. It was the most confusing and greatest reaction of just pure, natural excitement and hatred.”
“I even had to give some stuff to our social media team because I received death threats after that; it was insane. People went way overboard, but people were like, ‘I’m coming to Raw to stab you.’ It was crazy. I can’t remember but I called Seth Rollins a piece of sh*t or something. I don’t know what it was, but I was so excited when I did that and the reaction was so unreal and loud that I turned around and I was mad and whatever I was feeling, it came out and it was so funny because it was totally natural. But I had to click back into the zone. It was a surreal moment that I will remember forever.”
