Useful takeaways from this story.

Lil Yachty released a diss track aired on SmackDown aimed squarely at Baron Corbin, using repeated insults about Corbin’s baldness, age, and personal life.

A stipulation tied to the upcoming match: if Yachty lasts five minutes against Corbin, Trick Williams will get another immediate shot at the United States Championship that same night.

WWE positioned the music video as additional heat before the Sunday Night’s Main Event match in Atlanta between Yachty and Corbin.

# What happened

Lil Yachty appeared with Trick Williams on the September 4 episode of SmackDown. WWE aired a new music video in which Yachty verbally attacks Baron Corbin ahead of their scheduled match at Sunday Night's Main Event in Atlanta.

# What the diss track says

The song repeatedly mocks Corbin's bald head and age, with lines that directly address Corbin: "Bald head buster / When I catch you, you know I'm a beat you bald head boy," and "I ain't giving grandpa no more clout." The track also contains a line referencing Corbin's wife: "Last five minutes. I'd rather do that with your spouse." The overall tone is confrontational and built to escalate the personal animosity between the performers.

# Context in the ongoing feud

The diss track isn't a standalone moment. It follows weeks of on-screen conflict between Corbin and Trick Williams that pulled Yachty into the story. Corbin put Yachty through a table during the rivalry. Corbin later defeated Trick Williams to win the United States Championship. Yachty struck back by helping to lay Corbin out after a title defense, further intensifying the feud.

WWE made the Yachty vs. Corbin match official for Sunday Night's Main Event and added a stipulation with stakes for Trick Williams: if Yachty can last five minutes in the ring with Corbin, Williams earns another immediate shot at the United States Championship later that night. That gives Yachty a clear objective that doesn't require him to beat Corbin, only to survive long enough to alter the card.

# Immediate aftermath and stakes for the event

The diss track added heat heading into the Sunday Night's Main Event encounter. The five-minute survival stipulation ties Yachty's performance directly to Williams' championship opportunity, so the match outcome matters beyond just the immediate win/loss for Yachty.

# What to watch for at Sunday Night's Main Event

  • Whether the diss track changes crowd reaction or commentary tone during the match.
  • Yachty's non-wrestler status and the five-minute survival stipulation.
  • If the segment advances the Williams–Corbin title storyline depending on whether Yachty lasts five minutes.

# Bottom line

WWE used Lil Yachty's music video to escalate a heated storyline with Baron Corbin. The diss track centers on personal insults aimed at Corbin and sets louder stakes for the upcoming match by linking Yachty's five-minute survival to another title opportunity for Trick Williams.
