WWE star has a backup plan exterior of the corporate if he does not grow to be World Champion

While not every WWE star ends up being the World Champion in the career, one particular name already has a backup plan.

Matt Cardona, who re-signed with the Stamford-based promotion in January this year, has apparently always wanted to climb to the top ranks of the company and hold the highest title. However, him being released from the brand earlier when he was known as Zack Ryder threw water all over his plans. After making his mark in the Independent circuit and coming back to WWE, he is now back on track to pursue his original goal.

Speaking on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet, Cardona noted that he had a plan ready in case he didn’t become World Champion down the line in WWE. He said:

Hopefully, this all works out and and, you know, we do an interview in a couple years and I can talk about my WWE title win, right? But if it doesn’t, like, I found my place outside, and I could always go back there, which is great, like a good backup plan, but I don’t want a backup plan. Like, this is the plan: to be the WWE Champion.”

Matt Cardona recently talked about Cody Rhodes and another WWE star’s comments about him

A while back before Cardona had joined the Stamford-based promotion again, Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens had made some comments about him on What do you wanna talk about? which Cardona did not quite like.

Speaking in the same interview, Cardona noted that he was over it now but at the time, he had taken offense. He regretted not being able to tell his side of the story. He said:

“Honestly, I was pissed, because they made it seem that all I would say is I wanted to be back… I’d only talk about it when I’d be doing things like this, and you ask me a question. It bothered me, but I’m over it now. Yes, it wasn’t malicious; I just did not appreciate that I didn’t get a chance to come on and tell my version until I got re-signed, ” said Cardona.

As of now, Cardona is an active star on Triple H’s roster. It remains to be seen what he plans to do next to reach new heights in his career.
