Former WWE star Tom Pestock (Baron Corbin) appeared on Busted Open Radio, where he discussed various topics, including being surprised by his WWE exit.

Pestock said, โ€œI wish so badly for you [Bully Ray], for my own sanity, for everyone else asking, for everyone else โ€” Randy Orton was like, โ€˜Dude, I gotta call Hunter, like, what the hell?โ€™ I donโ€™t understand [why I was released] because Iโ€™ve been a company guy for 13 years, Iโ€™ve done everything asked of me, Iโ€™ve done really great things with things that were not greatโ€ฆ Also the ability to just put on a good match with anybody, anytime, anywhereโ€ฆ itโ€™s something I can do.โ€

On why he thinks he was cut:

โ€œI donโ€™t know why. Randy [and I], we chatted a little bit and I believe thereโ€™s one person that made this decision or influenced this decision, and thatโ€™s what put me in the position that Iโ€™m in now.โ€
