Dijak, who had been making waves since returning to NXT last year, confirmed his departure from WWE. Despite being called up to the main roster this year, he never debuted on RAW. He recently expressed his sentiment that wrestling on WWE Main Event feels like a career setback.
After being drafted to Monday Night RAW in the 2024 WWE Draft, Dijak went several weeks without appearing on television. He briefly wrestled on the April 16th episode of NXT but then didnt reappear until the May 30th episode of Main Event, where he faced Pete Dunne.
While speaking to Fightful, Dijak made it clear that being relegated to Main Event came as a significant disappointment. He expressed frustration, mentioning how he had initial discussions with a writer who seemed positive about using him on Raw weekly, based on creative plans discussed by management. However, receiving a text on a Saturday informing him of his Main Event booking was disheartening, as he considered it a death sentence rather than an opportunity.
Dijak credited his support team at Paragon Talent Agency, including Mojo Rawley and Steve Kay, for helping him stay focused and positive during uncertain times. He acknowledged the speculation online about his status and potential contract negotiations, with some suggesting WWE might be stalling to secure his re-signing.
While appreciating their support, Dijak also expressed skepticism based on his seven years of experience with the company and how talents at his level are typically treated.
Dijak also seemingly threw shade at WWE for never debuting on RAW. In the meantime, Dijak also teasedan appearance in TNA Wrestling soon, so it remains to be seen what the future holds for the former WWE Superstar in the coming months.
