Indie star Matt Cardona appeared on the Notsam Wrestling podcast to discuss various topics, including the chant of his name in front of WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque during the Night of Champions post-show.
Cardona said, “Well, first, people were just sending me the video (of fans at the WWE Night of Champions post-show chanting his name) with no context. And I’m at this loud wedding, I’m watching this video, it’s just Triple H talking. I’m like, ‘What is going on here?’ I went to the back, I went, ‘Ohhh! I see what they’re chanting.’ Listen, it’s great, I love it. I love that the fans still think about me, certainly that they’re still chanting for me and you know me, Sam, I’ll take any publicity. I will run with it. This one, I didn’t necessarily overexpose. I was kind of heavy on the (John) Cena, overexposing the ‘hey.’ Then Cody (Rhodes) and K.O. were, you know, I think they were half-burying me on their podcast. So I’m like, alright, let’s pump the brakes a little bit here.”
