The WWE has announced that Baron Corbin is injured after Cody Rhodes’s Punt Kick.
During SmackDown on October 23, 2026, WWE announced that Baron Corbin is suffering from a cervical muscle strain, an orbital bone contusion, and blurred vision. The development means he will be out for an indefinite period.
Undoubtedly, all of this is a storyline designed to play up the involvement and impact of the Punt Kick, which has just made its return to WWE. Nevertheless, the outcome remains the same: Baron Corbin will be absent from SmackDown for an indefinite period.
Baron Corbin’s return to SmackDown will be watched on the upcoming shows.
