Colby Corino comments on potentially going to WWE, AEW, or IMPACT.
Corino reportedly signed wiuth WWE in February 2023. However, in May, Cassidy Haynes of Bodyslam.net reported that Corino was once again a free agent. Corino then returned to NWA at NWA Crockett Cup 2023, and he later won the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship at NWA 75.
Speaking with WU Online, Corino reflected on his WWE deal falling through. He was then asked whether he could see himself in WWE, IMPACT, or AEW. Corino stated that he feels like NWA is a perfect fit right now, but he believes his destiny may always be WWE.
"I don’t know. I feel like NWA and Colby Corino go together very well. I feel like every company has their own style. Don’t get me wrong, don’t put it on the Internet that I don’t want to work for all these companies. But I think right now, me and NWA are a perfect fit. Maybe down the line, I feel like me and WWE…I’m always gonna want an action figure of myself. I’m gonna want to bring my kid down the Walmart toy isle and be like, ‘Look, that’s daddy right there.’ Until NWA can do that for me, I feel like my destiny might be always be with WWE. One day," Corino said.
Corino was also asked whether winning the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship is his ultimate goal. He stated that it is, as his father, Steve Corino, held the title. Colby noted that he can't go anywhere else until he wins the world title in NWA.
“Oh, 100%. That’s the belt my dad held. So I don’t think that there’s any doubt in anyone’s mind that that’s where my destiny lies. I can’t go anywhere else until I get the Worlds Heavyweight Championship," Corino said.
