While speaking to Chris Van Vliet, Matt Cardona commented on what’s next for him now that he has returned to WWE. Cardona stated the following…

“That is a great question. I feel very blessed that I’m in the win-win situation, where I feel like I’m the top of my game. I’m 40 years old, 41 now, but I feel better now and look better now. I wrestle better now at 41 than I did when I was 21.

You look at the landscape with WWE, the two current champions are my age or older, right? But then again, there’s all these young up-and-comers, so I gotta be on my toes to keep up with them, and hopefully this all works out and we do an interview in a couple years, and I could talk about my WWE title win, right?

But if it doesn’t, I found my place outside WWE, and I could always go back there, which is great, a good backup plan. But I don’t want a backup plan. This is the plan to be the WWE Champion.”
