Former WWE star Tyler Breeze appeared on Busted Open Radio to discuss a variety of topics, including his release from the company.
Breeze said, “Obviously, it’s a double-edged sword, a combination of things depending on where you made it. So, when it came for me, I kinda essentially grew up in WWE, so — depending on what phase you’re at, you’re either ready to explore that other side, or kinda go, ‘Oh man, what do I do now?’ Then there’s people on the other side of it, who either didn’t get a taste of Raw and SmackDown, big time, so to speak, or they got there for a short time, so it’s like, ‘Oh man, I didn’t get to show what I can do.’ Either way, it’s great because it’s not the end unless you choose to be the end.”
On his mindset following his release:
“First of, obviously, you recognize that there’s no paycheck coming. Luckily for me, I’m realistic. I saw where you’re sitting on the board, or you’re not those guys who are the John Cenas or whatever. So you start preparing for that day, [thinking] ‘Hey, if this happens, what am I going to do to still put food on the table for my family.’”
