- Baron Corbin and former TNA Knockout SoCal Val has a Twitter exchange this week after Val took a shot at Corbin's gear for the WWE Extreme Rules pay-per-view.
She wrote, "Ok. Towards end of PPV now and @BaronCorbinWWE has just come our STILL committed to wearing the #TGIFridays busboy formal wear. TO WRESTLE IN."
Corbin responded, "You still mad I shot you down?"
Val claimed they have never met. She wrote back, "I'm not sure what that even means. I've never actually met you. But! I've grown increasingly worried about your fashion sense on television. In short, please buy wrestling gear."
