Baron Corbin came to WWE in 2012, a year after his NFL career came to an end. Corbin, whose real name is Thomas Pestock, played as an offensive guard for Division II Northwest Missouri State, and though he went undrafted in 2009, he spent time with the Indianapolis Colts and Arizona Cardinals but failed to make the regular-season roster of either team.

As a lineman in the NFL, Pestock weighed about 320 pounds - but he's slimmed down to a billed weight of 275 as a pro wrestler. Corbin doesn't (yet) have the completely ripped physique of a Big E, and during a match on Raw Monday a fan tweeted a screenshot to Corbin to make fun of his torso. Corbin wrecked the guy.
