Almost as soon as Dijak announced on social media that he was set to depart WWE due to the company not offering him a new contract, speculation commenced that he could be AEW-bound. And while he wouldn’t appear on camera, the former NXT wrestler has revealed on X that he was at AEW’s Forbidden Door pay-per-view via a photograph taken backstage before later saying, “Great show man, thanks for having me” in Tony Khan’s replies. Of course, this doesn’t mean Dijak is joining AEW or their sister promotion, ROH, but given his talent, it seems likely Khan would at least consider bringing him in.
37-year-old Dijak first made his name in ROH, although that was many years before Khan purchased the promotion. However, most fans know him best for his WWE run, which saw him excel as part of NXT but flop on the main roster. Still, how much he is to blame for not getting the terrible T-Bar gimmick over is debatable, with the Retribution faction seemingly doomed from the start due to their ridiculous names and masks.
