Matt Cardona, who is currently injured with a torn pectoral muscle, spoke with Sportskeeda.com and discussed a possible return to WWE or AEW once he fully recovers.

โ€œNow Iโ€™d be lying if I said that I love wrestling at high school gyms and that I donโ€™t miss wrestling at Madison Square Garden. Come on! You know, couple of months ago, I wrestled Adam Copeland, Edge, my literal dream match on AEW. To just walk out in a full arena, of course I miss that, of course. But right now, Iโ€™m doing the best I possibly can, Iโ€™m taking the things I can control and doing the best I possibly can at them. Of course, I want to be back in WWE or AEW but only if itโ€™s right. I donโ€™t want to be back just to be back. I donโ€™t want to just be a guy on the roster. Been there, done that. If right now my phone rings from Tony Khan and Triple H, Iโ€™m gonna pick up and have a convo, but Iโ€™m not going to get on my hands and knees begging for a job.โ€

โ€œI mean, thereโ€™s so many people. I could plug myself into almost any situation. Letโ€™s say Sami Zayn, IC Title, come for that title. I had it for a day. Now, I want it back, I want a real run with it. Cody Rhodes, WWE Champ, our friendship is pretty obvious. Itโ€™s pretty public. Maybe we flip the script on that. My side, Chelsea Green. Thereโ€™s a layup right there with that. Then AEW, we had the dream match already with Adam Copeland. Now, do I align myself with him and help him against the House of Black? Or do I join the House of Black? Or Christian Cage. Literally, I could put myself in any situation and deliver. So Iโ€™m not worried about [whether] there a creative story for me. But yeah, for me to go back to one of those places, there would need to be a creative story for me. I would need the two cโ€™s to be there, the cash and the creative.โ€
