Matt Cardona comments on his name being mentioned by WWE wrestlers and fans

In recent weeks, Matt Cardona’s name has been publicly mentioned by WWE wrestlers including John Cena. Cardona’s name was also chanted by fans during the 2025 WWE Night of Champions post-show.

While speaking to Sam Roberts, Cardona commented on his name being brought up…

“Well, first, people were just sending me the video (of fans at WWE Night of Champions chanting my 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.” (quote courtesy of Andrew Thompson)
