Baron Corbin Reveals New Name as Bishop Dyer

Baron Corbin Reveals New Name as Bishop Dyer – Baron Corbin, now officially departed from WWE, has announced his new in-ring name as he embarks on the next chapter of his wrestling career. After a decade with WWE, Corbin—real name Tom Pestock—has rebranded himself as “Bishop Dyer,” accompanied by the nickname “The Nomad.”

Corbin recently wrestled his first match outside WWE at The People vs. GCW event earlier this month, competing under his real name. However, during an interview with Chris Van Vliet, he confirmed that Bishop Dyer will be his new identity moving forward.

Explaining the inspiration behind the name, Corbin stated that “Dyer” is a nod to his old WWE nickname, “The Lone Wolf,” as it references the Dire Wolf, a powerful and legendary creature. The title “Bishop” signifies a rank above “Baron,” reflecting his intention to evolve and elevate his persona.

“I’m going with ‘The Nomad’ Bishop Dyer. I’m gonna roam and go wherever the wrestling world takes me,” Corbin explained. “It pays tribute to ‘The Lone Wolf’ while also symbolizing progression. Plus, it’s already trademarked, so nobody’s getting their hands on it.”

Corbin also shared details about his future aspirations. He plans to remain a free agent for the time being, with hopes of performing in various promotions, including New Japan Pro Wrestling, NWA, and TNA. Corbin revealed that TNA has already reached out to discuss potential opportunities, but he’s keeping his options open.

“I don’t want to sign a contract right now because I like the freedom,” Corbin said. “I love wrestling, and if I can be in front of fans wherever, I’m going to do it.”

As Bishop Dyer, the former WWE star aims to carve out a new legacy, continuing to entertain fans across the wrestling world.
