Donovan Dijak Comments on Baron Corbin’s MLW Departure & Surprise Return To WWE

As noted before, Baron Corbin, former Bishop Dyer in Major League Wrestling and the indies, made his surprise return to WWE at the July 10th WWE SmackDown show in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

A recent episode of the Off The Ropes podcast featured former WWE and current MLW talent Donovan Dijak as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Dijak’s thoughts about his former tag team partner Corbin’s recent departure from MLW and return to WWE.

“Well so, it’s interesting that you bring that up because I haven’t found out that he’s not going to be with MLW any longer. I mean, that is still completely up in the air. I don’t control the contracts of companies and who can appear when and why and what. Right now, the last we left it on episodic MLW FUSION television is that there’s a contract dispute and that’s where it’s been left. Obviously, he popped up as Baron Corbin on WWE but that’s not to say that can’t reappear on MLW television.”

In response to comments from the host about the idea of Danhausen cloning Corbin, Dijak responded stating:

“It’s possible. Anything’s possible, especially in that universe. They’re cloning people, they’re cursing people. There’s pyro and stuff going off. There’s all sorts of crazy stuff happening so, it’s the wild west out there. You never know who’s gonna pop up. Sometimes, Dolph Ziggler pops up on WWE television. You never know what’s gonna happen.”

Netflix Censors Brock Lesnar’s Shirt on July 13 WWE RAW Show VOD Version

As noted before, Netflix recently uploaded edited Video On Demand replay versions of Night of Champions 2026 and the July 6th episode of WWE RAW due to blood-related issues. The edited VOD version of Night of Champions featured Bron Breakker’s bloody face being blurred out after he got busted open during his Steel Cage match against Seth Rollins while the July 6th WWE RAW show featured “glitching” effects to mask Cody Rhodes bleeding after Gunther’s attack on him.

Post Wrestling’s Jason Ounpraseuth reported that Netflix also uploaded an edited VOD version of the July 13th WWE RAW show on their service.

This edit revolved around Brock Lesnar’s “Talk Sh*t Get Hit” shirt being digitally altered to censor out the “Sh*t” word.

Besides the censored out word, alternate camera angles were used to not show Lesnar’s shirt and shots of Oba Femi were also shown replacing the original reaction shots of Lesnar during Femi’s promo segment on the show.

Brock Lesnar’s already censored ‘Talk Sh*t Get Hit’ shirt has been edited on the replay version of the show on Netflix which has now removed the word ‘sh*t’ entirely now.
