Baron Corbin's recent burial wasn’t due to his Twitter messages as was first thought, although they didn't help his situation. Dave Meltzer revealed on the Wrestling Observer message board that there was an incident which took place backstage a few weeks ago that angered WWE officials, Metlzer wrote: 

“Only thing I can say is that there was an incident, it wasn't anything reported, nothing in the ring, not related to Twitter or talent, and they changed booking plans. He'll be fine. Vince loves him. If not, he'd have been fired.” 

It is rumored that the incident stems from a meeting talent had with WWE doctor Joseph Maroon who was giving a talk to talent about concussions, Corbin apparently interrupted Maroon several times in disagreement about Maroon’s opinions on CTE. Many believed he should have addressed his concerns after the session in private and not so openly.
