While speaking to Ringer Wrestling, Ilja Dragunov commented on if he is disappointed about not having a match at WWE WrestleMania 42…

“You kind of roll with the punches in life, you know. Disappointment is such a hard word. I’m living my absolute best life. I am. I have amazing performances with Carmelo, and I think honestly everything that we achieved together—from NXT to the main roster—means a lot.

Not having a match at WrestleMania this year is only one thing that we don’t have compared to everything else we accomplished in front of the audience. All the memories and moments we gave to the people watching us fight—there’s nothing that anyone can take away from us. People will remember this, and somewhere down the line, it’s all going to make sense.”
