It is believed that the two women will now enter a 90-day non-compete period. It is not certain how long is left on Corbin’s contract before it expires.
Baron Corbin (Thomas Pestock), 40, joined WWE in 2012, initially assigned to NXT. He transitioned to the main roster in 2016 at WrestleMania 32, where he won the André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. During his WWE career, Corbin achieved a victory in the 2017 Money in the Bank ladder match, one reign as WWE United States Champion, and a win in the 2019 King of the Ring tournament. In 2024, he held the NXT Tag Team Championship alongside Bron Breakker.
Over the years, Corbin’s character underwent multiple transformations, evolving from the ‘Lone Wolf’ persona to ‘King Corbin’ and later ‘Happy Corbin.’ During his tenure, he engaged in high-profile feuds with John Cena, Kurt Angle, and Roman Reigns.
Indi Hartwell (Samantha De Martin), 28, signed with WWE in November 2019, debuting in NXT in January 2020. Her accomplishments in the company include winning the NXT Women’s Tag Team Championship with Candice LeRae and later capturing the NXT Women’s Championship in April 2023. She was called up to WWE’s main roster in 2023, initially appearing on Raw before moving to SmackDown.
Tegan Nox (Steffanie Newell), 29, joined WWE in 2017 but encountered several setbacks due to recurring knee injuries. She debuted in NXT in 2018 and participated in the Mae Young Classic that year. Her WWE career highlights include notable rivalries in NXT, particularly with Dakota Kai and Candice LeRae. Nox made her main roster debut in July 2021 on SmackDown but was briefly released later that year, returning in December 2022.
