Dijak had a solid run in NXT last year, but his transition to the main roster this year ended up being his downfall. He is no longer part of WWE but he knows how it was to work under Vince McMahon and has now revealed that McMahon wanted a WWE star to fake having a seizure.
While speaking to Pro Wrestling Bits, Dijak was asked about the most bizarre ideas for the Retribution faction during the pandemic. Dijak recalled when Vince McMahon wanted Mia Yim to pretend she was having an epileptic seizure.
The idea was presented to them by a writer or producer, and it was clear that even the messenger was uncomfortable with the request. Dijak and others were shocked, questioning how such a thing could be considered acceptable.
Dijak noted he even talked about the incident with Pat Buck, who was a producer at the time and was present when Vince pitched the idea. Everyone in the room was taken aback, but in those production meetings, it was impossible to challenge Vince McMahon directly. Criticizing Vince McMahons ideas could result in being fired, especially during the pandemic. Instead, they had to cautiously suggest alternatives, but Vince was adamant about the seizure angle
Dijak also claimed that Vince McMahon wanted him to fail in WWE. Regardless, Dijak is more than happy he is no longer working under Vince McMahon as there are limitless possibilities following his WWE exit.
