How yall feel about Dijak leaving WWE seemingly out of nowhere 🤔
A bit bummed but can see why
I hate it.
Odyssy Jones was drafted to Raw last year and still works there, having never made an appearance on the show. Dijak was doing good in NXT, so why draft him with no plans, only to let him go?
Ready to see a match or face to face between Dijak and Santizap
This is what happens when you do not allow Triple H to handle most of the negotiations.
For now wwe just needs to keep the ones they have and re-sign some and feature them on television
It’s so UNFORTUNATE that we never got to see Dijak’s new character on the main roster. His matches against Keith Lee and IIja Dragunov were phenomenal in NXT, Wishing him the absolute best wherever he goes next
They had him lose to Xavier on speed which is kinda disappointing to me like. Dijak deserves better
Because majority of fans don’t care about banger matches, we’re drawn in by character/charisma and storytelling
What charisma does whc priest have😂😂😂@@Dabighomiee
@@khesipresents1885Luck, right place and right time. Damien is not over alone but his Faction is, Damien is over by an angle of his unpredictable title reign which has many contenders and drama within his Faction.
Dijak on mainroster would have ended up in Karrion Kross spot with 50/50 booking when fans don't care to boo or cheer. Catering twitter audience and carter casual have massive difference. I don't think he would have got over in mainroster realistically in this stacked roster. Dijak is better off in MLW or TNA where he can get spot and not get a 50/50 booking.
@@Dabighomieehis character was cool tho
If he goes to TNA, he could be part of the WWEvsTNA Feud
That would be a smart move plus him vs hammer stone would be something interesting or him going against dolph ziggler
But do you think TNA will allow it? Unlike Dolph Ziggler it was not on good terms, Mustafa Ali critic WWE but he was also neutral and didn't burned the bridge.
Dijak and Top Dolla (AJ Francis) just burned the bridge with WWE. I don't think fans will see this very soon.
A.J. Francis (Top Dollar) is the TNA Digital Media Champion
flop dolla a joke 😂
@@joseatx1992nah
@@joseatx1992 get a load of this guy
This situation is honestly why AEW and other alternatives are great for wresting in general. If someone just can't get over in WWE, they can have their stardom in AEW and vice-versa. Plus, it can help WWE who can let wrestlers go then rehire them when they have use for them
If Tony Khan wasn't booking the show, he would have been a perfect fit for AEW. But unlike 2019, AEW themselves have bloated roster and no defined brand their own talents are struggling to get TV time.
AEW for now is good for a good pay day and very light schedule. But overall in terms of wrestling career i don't think so. Given the fact Dijak is just 37, its depends whether he will like a good pay day or Tv time.
its very unfortunate that some of these wrestlers are leaving WWE but imo sometimes people overate these wrestlers yes some of them are talented but there’s just so many talented people on the roster not everyone is going to be able to get tv time. WWE is going to do their very best to put the very best on tv and if you’re not in that upper echelon it is what it is business is business
thats true of course but in a case like Dijak you have a guy who performed stellar matches in NXT, gets called up to the main roster only to end up in Retribution that does nil. then he comes back to NXT, with a new character, gets it over, has more great matches only to get called up without anything to do. must be quite frustrating. you can't reach the upper echelons if they don't give you the chance to go there. so what is left? leave and try somewhere else. i personally hope he goes to japan, maybe does something there, AEW roster is bloated and has the same problem as WWE.
@@VanezBanewho's he replacing?
@@VanezBaneDijak in NXT got over with hardcore fanbase not the casual fans. Most NXT wrestlers who go up in mainroster ends up not connecting with the casual crowd. Hence guys like Johnny Gargano, Ciampa, Pete Dunne, Tyler Bate, Melo do not get over even when they are pushed, as crowd do not connect with em.
Bron Brekker, KO, Zayn, Gunther, Daniel Bryan and Ilja Dragonov are few exceptions who have mainstream appeal because they stand out.
@@jeffmendez02 well i'd say WWE is pretty much to blame for that, the main roster barely talks about NXT unless it is to promote the next PLE. on NXT they show clips of what happened on the main roster so you tune in, but not vice versa. casual fans oftentimes simply don't know who these people are. thats totally on WWE.
and yeah getting over is a fickle thing. but Dijak did not even get the chance this time on the main roster to get over in the first place. like a said, bloated roaster makes it hard to showcase all the talent. it's just a pity because he is a great worker.
@@VanezBane I get where ur coming from but the roster was stacked from mid-card to mainevent card I don't think he would have got over, Karrion Kross was given everything but still couldn't get over and Dijak is limited on mic, good in ring but limited. He was not lucky like Priest to be on top Faction nor he had the personality like LA Knight to get over. WWE bringing him up on main roster without a plan was a bad idea.
But its fair that his contract expired and he was not released in middle of a storyline unlike Mustafa Ali who got released after getting featured for NA Title now that's WWE fault and the talent has right to unhappy with WWE. But everyone has their own opinion.
Tbh if you have Nothing for people to do in terms of booking, it is best to let them leave and work somewhere else so they can have a fresh set of eyes on them and a new environment the push the envelope.
TNA is taylor made for Dijak to move to with the crossover they are doing. Perfect disgruntled former talent angle to use.
Because Endeavor is not going to sign/resign everyone. People forgot they also own UFC and other entities as well. That money doesn’t just go to the WWE.
Honestly I feel like Dijak could've been in the Bron Breakker role 2 or 3 years ago, not in place of Bron, but Dijak could've been murdering Jobbers and lower card guys YEARS ago!
While enjoy Triple H has head of creative, he isn't perfect and he has flaws. Triple H can't book everyone in a provident role even if he tries.
Neither can tony khan or tna or njpw
I think its impossible to book everyone effectively and i think fans for the most part cant understand that
Nobody can. There isn't enough slots in one promotion. Never has been
@@Venemofthe888 Facts
@@tufoinproductionsTrue
Top Dolla is currently the Digital Media champion for TNA
That alone says all you need to know about that title 😂
They didn't resign him ..he ain't leaving..he got left
He was on the MxM stream last night, and it was hilarious. I never knew Vince wanted Mansuer to be behind 9/11. 😂😂
@@DuceVasquez215 Dude, I literally just listened to him talk about this. Vince gave the idea to the head writer, who past it on to the writer in charge of Mansoor's creative. That writer said it was a shit idea, and the head writer berated her for it, saying it came directly from Vince.
That would have ended their relationship with Saudi Arabia. Framing one of their hometown boy for 9/11. Vinny Mac would have had PR nightmare with this. WWE with 9/11 controversy and his SA allegations 💀. Jezzzzz I am glad this old man is done for good.
@@jeffmendez02 You're giving Vince a lot of credit by thinking Vince even knew Mansoor was Saudi. Vince just saw a brown guy and thought, "9/11." 🤣🤣
@@TheNeonParadox Vince was in Saudi for the Saudi show, when Mansoor debuted. He promoted him as the hometown guy and had him win the match. He knew full well what he was doing. And that is why it makes it even more bad.
@@Bayley4ever Ah. Gotcha. I've only watched WWE in Twitter clip form since WWE, and I haven't seen any of their Saudi shows.
Dijak could of been a ratio’n terminator type character like a badass.
It kinda proves the point that many of these stars make because their apart of a family bloodline not to say they didn’t work hard like regular wrestlers but their more guaranteed to be put in the spotlight,
I think they need to make more titles…
If it's like Becky then it's to take a break from wrestling and be with their children while woth Ricochet and Dijak it's most likely due to how they'd been booked on the main roster for years and how by the time Triple H took control of creative it was too late and the suddenness of Triple H being in charge of creative
DIJAK SAID WWE CHOSE NOT TO RENEW
Yeah, I'm sure Ricochet did leave, cause HHH didn't see him as more than a bottom level guy and wouldn't give him a real push. So he can go back to the indies or AEW and I know...he won't be better off in AEW. The indies yes. He was huge on the indies and with the WWE experience, he can command more money.
Hunter does not need to have something for EVERY person who wants a job, Ross! There is not unlimited TV time! 💯
I think having that many people to handle people arent gonna get the spotlight or get less spotlight from the Vince era. If they have nothing for you long term i think its better to leave if you can and prove yourself elsewhere. I think people need to understand not everyone can get on TV and succeed but there are more companies out there than there ever has been so even leaving WWE theres options
Another reason why Triple H should allow talents to wrestle for other companies similar to what AEW does. There isn’t enough tv time for all the amazing talent WWE has.
Funny you understand that except when Vince is booking
Vinny Mac booking was horrendous but for most part he was right with a lot of talent they released back in 2019-2020. HHH right now is just learning some hard truth about the mainstream audience hence he is not pushing his guys like Gargano and Ciampa who were one of his favourite in NXT. The guys he doesn't want to push ends up getting massive reactions like LA Knight who have mainstream appeal because of his personality and size.
TNA is going to get Dijak in the their Roster 🔥
I mean Dijak situation doesnt sound like he had a choice without a new deal being negotiated. I think he will flourish in another company. I dont think AEW will be the right fit for him but TNA could be good.
Also so many people are saying hes being released which seems to be wrong and are using it for clickbait. I will say a release isnt a bad thing fully. While it sucks losing your job, perhaps it might give them the drive and motivation to prove themselves and to improve your own worth
His contract expired and WWE didn't wanted to renew his contract, so no non-compete clause which means he wasn't released.
Im sorry people have to get over the people that they release. A lot of these guys aren't known and are not a loss. Leave, revitalize your character and make them call you back.
Man I thought he(Dijak) would be utilized correctly by HHH but he now leaving wwe so sad
Like you thought TK would push wwe guys who were fired
It's not so much the fact of letting him go that's the real problem, since that happens at any job. It's the fact that WWE made the concerted effort to call him up through the draft and then let him sit out with seemingly no storylines ready for him to try and get over on the main roster. Whether they were planning on letting him go regardless or not, they could have just let him work the remainder of his contract on NXT at the very least.
Why? That TV time could go to someone they want to keep. Then he's holding back their potential.
I know the thing is they over think sometimes on the call ups. Bring Dijak up, have him destroy jobbers, for a few weeks, then have him attack someone important and start a real feud, that he wins. Do the vignettes of him from NXT, mixed in with that. Same with others they have. Carmelo needs time and they do need him working matches, showcasing him more.
I’m all for more storylines, less meaningless matches
Raw is really trying with stories and different priorities across the card .....unlike SmackDown who only just care about milking bloodline
This.
@@khesipresents1885SmackDown lacks heels at the moment it's very babyface heavy, that's the reason why Cody Rhodes and Bayley's as champion doesn't have much opponents to work with as the brand have too many babyface and most heels are not on the same level as them.
@@jeffmendez02 well top heels won't just appear from thin air...it's bookers faults for not preparing top heels on SmackDown as they knew Cody would be champ soon
@@khesipresents1885 Bookers fault? Maybe to an extend yes. But entirely most stars in SmackDown aren't on mainevent level, and those on mainevent level are all babyfaces.
That F’ing sucks, I enjoyed Dijak’s work in NXT. He was able to reinvent himself after the “Retribution” stint. Suck a waste!
Very talented in ring, didn't have the mic skills to back that up yet, maybe will do what Cody and macyntire did
With WWE focusing more on storylines and Raw moving to Netflix, could we end up having more characters who just don't wrestle at all? Like, more Paul Heymans or something like that purely there for the story
I’m all for it
Every company is gonna drop the ball on someone. That's how the game works. Any company that's in TV is gonna have a few people that are better than the position that they are currently in.
If I was WWE, I would tell Dijak that We will extent your contact but I want Dijak to lie on the internet that he is not to be resigned with WWE, I will Dijak that with the partnership with TNA, Dijak joins TNA to go after the X-Division Title.
Dijak is aew confirmed
Or TNA
I was wondering where Dijak was for weeks.
It sucks if you're not a top wrestler like Jay Cargill Bianca Bel-Air Seth Rollins Becky Lynch Jey Uso Randy Orton Sami Zayn if you're not wrestling like them you don't get no time it's a lot of great town of being wasted that's f***** up I don't get it let them go to NXT let them go to aew because they're going to get play time
It's a bummer. He's great in the ring and a decent promo. I was really curious how HHH would have booked him.
I saw this coming
It's just part of the business...nothing personal. He unfortunately didn't click with old or new creative. It happens. I wish him, he has something.
The problem is we got Dijak leaving and solo sikoa staying there it’s absolutely insane
You can't compare the two. They are in two different spots, Solo did good numbers with new BL factions and is in an important angle with Roman. You can dislike him and his wrestling style but you can't say Solo doesn't draw at moment.
Solo is related to top people
Makes no sense for them to get rid of solo
Solo has connected with the crowd. He has built in story, that helped him in the beginning. Poor Dijak would have a hard time on the main roster, most likely, no matter what they did with him. I really do like him, but he isn't flashy or all of that. But, I figure if they really did want to push him and make him strong and evil or something like that, he would click with enough people, but WWE doesn't see the potential for him.
How is Odyssey jones still employed
I honestly don't know. I've heard he's been wrestling at WWE house shows but there's no reason why he can't be on TV then
He does work with WWE's next in line program and goes to universities in a ambassador kind of role
@@DooplisTheGhostI see him doing other stuff like hanging out with young fans and doing other great things instead of wrestling itself.
Tegan NOx?
@@DooplisTheGhosthe has more personality than Ivar and Bronson reed
DIJAK was never given the chance on Main Roster. He's an incredible wrestler. He wanted to work, but they had nothing for him.
He will land someone else, he's too talented not to.
@KickinitwithRoss Top Dolla is the Digital Media Champion.
Good video ross and bye dijack
His contract ended as of today, so he can show up at forbidden door or he can show up in TNA, or he might go to MLW who knows, there's always New Japan as well and pro wrestling NOAH
I don’t like how they have Dragunov right now…He was built up so strong and now he’s talking Ls left and right.
I’m not familiar with Dijak but it sucks he got called up just to be let go. Why even bother bringing them up in the first place when you don’t have anything good for a wrestler
Personally I think he's being booked fine as it seems like the goal is to have him and gunther main event bash in berlin so they're kinda seeing how he connects with the crowd so the fans can get behind him come august as they constantly mention how he's one of the only 3 people to beat gunther
Dragunov will be fine.
Remember Wardlow pinned MJF in the most jobber burial way, and look what happened after...
Main stream audience aren't well aware bout Dragonov and he doesn't have the size to get the same push like Bron Brekker or Gunther. For now he is getting booked like an underdog babyface and he only took losses to top profile wrestlers. He is one of few NXT call ups, he standsout because he works very unique and have a very convincing personality to be taken seriously. He like Daniel Bryan will get over slowly.
@@jeffmendez02 I had stopped watching NXT a while ago but since I heard of a new crop of call-ups I decided to check out their work on NXT and from what I've seen there he's damn good. That is an issue I always had a problem with...the wrestlers on NXT are always great until they get called up to be ruined...So I hope this will be temporary and he will get some strong wins.
DIjak been doing great but they pushed Bronn so hard it took away all the opportunity to shine on NxT and the main roster.
Been following the dude on Twitter and always busy trying to make himself good to the audience but wwe doesn't give an F.
Let go Dijak
He would've been a perfect rival for Baron Corbin in my opinion
Who himself is not even appearing on TV since draft..many meaningless draft's
@@khesipresents1885Unlike Dijak, Corbin have been making appearances and is currently starting a mini feud with LDF. So can't say he is not getting booked.
@@jeffmendez02 never saw him outside one episode...he's wasted like dijak and Nakamura
@@khesipresents1885 Nakamura was on TV again and challenging for World title in house shows, Nakamura in American market doesn't sell due to lack of mic skills and Vince booking diminished his career.
You said Corbin wasn't on TV, i proved u wrong so don't come with excuses.
@@jeffmendez02 corbin is not on TV..so is Nakamura. So was dijak
I think by Endeavors buying WWE it really f**** the wrestler because like everybody says they are UFC
Dijak is another good example of WWE wasting a talents time🤦🏾 he was doing good in NXT and featured quite a bit but why draft him then choose to let his contract expire should've kept him in NXT this whole time using him and then let his contract expire
Wwe has some many wrestlers as it is. So unfortunately some have to be release
He didn't get released, his Contract expired and WWE didn't want to renew his contract.
@@jeffmendez02 oh gotcha
Embarrassment of riches talentwise. Fans don't have to care either.
ross i wanna know who are the people who wanted to see him
Ayeee
Lol if this was with Vince, the amount of people that would be damning him to hell would be insane... But for some reason a lot of internet dwellers seen to think that this is something positive lol
I will tell you why, three points.
1)With Vince the the booking was horrendous from top to bottom with few exceptions, so fans were quick to jump in conclusion that WWE didn't utilise them properly but most stars who got released in Vince regime never had a successful career and in a way proved Vince right and IWC wrong.
2) With HHH is different, the product is better overall and the owner of the company is different, yes the fans have biases here and there. But most fans are now well aware about the ratings and they know that not everyone is meant to be on TV. Most of the talents HHH rehired who were released in Vince regime aren't getting over, which was rude awakening for HHH, thus he doesn't push some of the wrestlers that were over in NXT to hardcore fans, as they don't have mainstream appeal. Dijak is not someone like Wyatt who was super over with masses.
3) And WWE didn't released Dijak, his contract expired and they chose not to renew. So its a fair play on their part. It's a business so at the end of the day their will be hirings, firings and non-renewal of contracts. Him getting drafted was questionable decision as the draft was poorly executed. But over-all no point debating WWE books to appeals casuals not just hardcores. Dijak is better off in TNA or MLW, instead of ending up like Karrion Kross who gets zero reaction and ending up getting 50/50 booking
@@jeffmendez02 The best moments in wrestling history happened under Vince... spare me the "booking was horrendus" bs. You people are just trend chasers and right now the trend is to hate Vince no matter what, and even though he deserves some of the hate, most of it is undeserved. Like claiming that the booking was horrendus under Vince when the guy has literally 3 and a half decades of legendary content that pretty much solidified pro wrestling as top entertainment and a cultural movement. Vince's vision did that...
@@oldmanjesus9855 Vince McMahon Ruthless Agression Era and Attitude Era was one of the best, he made wrestling mainstream that's facts.
But if you tell me his booking from 2008-2022 was not horrendous than that's absolute denial. His booking declined and he was not no longer appealing to most casuals and hardcores and got lazy. This is the same guy who started bringing up Zombies in wrestling. He was right with most the releases he made back in the day, but it's also facts that WWE declined during his PG Era. Hating Vince ain't a trend, his PG Era bs and his controversies is what led to his end.
@@jeffmendez02 going PG was what prevented the WWE from shutting down, they woudn't get solid tv positioning without going PG, if you think Vince wanted any of that for his company you are the one in denial. Want to blame somebody? Blame bored suburban housewives too lazy to raise their kids so they forced TV programs to mind their undisciplined and easy to impress children when delivering content. Had Vince refused to go PG we would probably be discussing how WWE went under because Vince didn't adapt to more tamed times. And keep in mind that the PG era is the most profitable era the WWE has ever been. so even with all that Vince's decisions kept the business rolling in money.
About the booking since 2008, we've had the nexus, cm punk, The shield, Daniel Brian, The wyatt family, not to mention countess solidified legends already in the main rosters. Of course there isn't enough time to book all the talent for each show and things could've always been better, but to call it horrendus since then, when we've got countless icons as shown above, is just ridiculous. The hate Vince gets is 100% exageratted and fruit of trend chasing more than actual bad wwe moments.
@@oldmanjesus9855 Ya but that doesn't excuse the cheesy storylines and bad creativity. HHH is doing better for majority of storylines under PG guidelines.
Was looking forward to seeing his badass entrance on the main roster especially at a PPV
Edit: I completely disagree with Wrestlemanias take on Dijak having no room for growth the guy could be putting on memorable matches on the main roster right now
I mean yeah, Seamus is okay on the mic, but he has become a bit of a favorite, especially since his matches with Gunther, which has disproven, it's all promo and has nothing to do with wrestling. And I mean Cody is not good on the mic or ring and he has THE World title around his waist.
losing dijak is such a L, that worse than ricochet if you ask me. that one hurts and its wwe faut thats crazy
Exactly. While Richochet isn’t a bad wrestler by any stretch of the imagination and not close to done, we’ve got to see a lot from him. Midcard titles and tag teams plus long time on the main roster. Haven’t seen much of anything from Dijak outside of NXt.
thought that was LA Knight in the thumbnail you scared me dawg lol
Damn…why?
I could see ricky starks leaving aew cause their not booking him
Lol and wwe will do what with him?
I want to ask you something brother do you think it would be smarter if they would have just brought ECW back and bring back WCW see if they can actually bring that them companies back and you wouldn't have to cut off fat it would help the company a lot more to
Release the trash jobbers
Its always the good ones that go
Ricochet's just feels like entitlement/impatience, he lost to ilja when it was his debut match and lost/been dominated by bron who's done that with everyone he's been in a feud/match with. I see nothing wrong with how he's being booked right now
He shouldn't be used as enhancement talent. The reason most over their careers were jobbers, was because they couldn't really wrestle. At any level were they stars. I mean small regional promotions they lost. No one paid to see them. Ricochet...I'm not saying World title, but he was a draw on the indies and is really good in the ring, his size and okay mic skills is what hurts him with the fans at a large level, which turns him into essentially a jobber.
It isn’t “unfortunate”. WWE is not obligated to give everyone a job.
The show is better slow-booking angles, instead of trying to get everyone on TV
Because the same 10 wrestlers get 90% of the TV time every week and people act like the business is booming.
I mean business is booming and has been since 98 lol
Calm down
The one's being pushed and are getting ratings. The storylines are weekly, not stop and start, so yeah, you keep your people on tv, to continue the story. That's how it works. And WWE ratings are no where near bad. They have went up and down over the last few years. But, they haven't tanked. Some people are talking about the drop off recently, but that was the Rock boost and him leaving, didn't drop ratings to danger levels. The numbers aren't the same as they were during the Attitude Era, but they weren't after the Attitude Era. And television is selling out every week almost and the attendance is up in the arenas. people are enjoying WWE, because it actually has continuous story telling and better endings.
I was hoping for Dijak to be with the Final Testament or The Judgment Day.
Wwe is gonna regret letting Dijak go and not using him for anything besides to put others over
I’m sorry, but WWE is filled with false hope, with great promos not being everything. There is also the need for proper communication behind the scenes.
It appeared like he was a little too out spoken for wwe liking
