Matt Cardona Addresses Rumored Leaked AEW Collision Run Street With His Name On It

Submitted by Matt Boone on


Could Matt Cardona turn up at AEW Collision when the show premieres at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois on Saturday, June 17, 2023?

Time will tell!

For now, the former WWE Superstar known as Zack Ryder spoke with our friends at PWMania.com and addressed his name being on the rumored leaked run sheet for the inaugural episode of the new Saturday night two-hour AEW on TNT television program.

"I mean, come on. That was so fake," Cardona said. "Listen, I’m flattered, I think I would be great on that show. I think AEW, what they’ve been doing is fantastic. I mean, adding another show, prime time, incredible. It shows their growth, they’re on their way to maybe sell out Wembley Stadium, which is incredible."

Cardona would go on to give AEW their flowers for helping establish an additional strong international brand in the pro wrestling landscape.

"AEW is doing some great things, but no, that is not a true lineup,: he said. "Unless Tony Khan calls me tomorrow. I mean, I’m a free agent for a reason, baby. I’m always ready. I mean, listen, I have not had a contract there. So that’s all I can say. And if the show starts this Saturday, I certainly won’t be there."
