Matt Cardona appeared on the “Pro Wrestling Boom” podcast where he discussed a wide range of topics.
During it, Cardona talked about growing up a Chris Jericho fan and the piece of advice he got from the former World Champion while in WWE.
“Chris Jericho is someone I looked up to as a kid,” Cardona said. “He has helped my career in so many ways that he might not even realize. Back in the day, I was wearing the one-legged tights in WWE and he pulled me aside and said, ‘Alright, you got noticed this way. It’s time to switch to trunks and be taken more seriously.’ Just stuff like that. He’s always been very supportive and to, you know, all these years later, in ninth grade I had a birthday cake with Chris Jericho on it and now I’m Chris Jericho Oceanic Champion.”
