When Matt Cardona was still Zack Ryder and found himself released by WWE, he decided to make himself the Indy God and create an entire career for himself outside the company. He never needed to go back, and that’s a point of pride for the 41-year-old veteran of the game.
Others in WWE right now would fall on their face if they were in the same situation.
That’s per the man himself, who had a chat with Jeremy Jacobowitz and had this to say about it:
“Leaving WWE is where I found myself, right? And it’s
certainly a sink-or-swim environment. So yes, do I think a lot of people would benefit? Sure! I also think a lot of people would fall on their face and flop because some of the people online, you know, they would say to me like, ‘Oh, you’re only successful on the indies because you came from WWE.‘ Well, then where’s everyone else who ever got fired? You know what I’m saying? Yeah, it helps that I learned so much from WWE, but I took what I learned and I, you know, used that and utilized that on the outside because if everyone who was fired was a success outside WWE, where are all these people?”
You can certainly appreciate where he’s coming from, considering he actually did do well to make something of himself after WWE cast him aside. But I think he should just go all the way with it and name names. Who exactly would fall flat on their face? If you’re going to say things like that, go all the way with it!
Who we talking about?!?
