Since departing WWE in November 2024, the former Baron Corbin has been reborn as Bishop Dyer and now as a radio show host.

It was previously reported that Baron Corbin’s WWE contract wasn’t going to be renewed, bringing an end to his twelve-year run in the company.

He would depart WWE in November 2024, with the former United States Champion confirming he was no longer under contract in January 2025.

With the real-life Tom Pestock competing as Bishop Dyer on the independent wrestling scene, it has now been revealed that he is joining Busted Open Radio.

The official Twitter account for the SiriusXM show announced the former-Baron Corbin as a new host in March 2025, tweeting:
