Dijak has been on a roll ever since he returned to NXT last year, as the star is truly bright for the NXT Superstar. He also sent a stern message following this week’s episode of NXT.
This week’s episode of NXT was the go-home edition before NXT Stand & Deliver and a lot happened during the show. At NXT Stand & Deliver, Dijak is set to face off against Oba Femi for the NXT North American Championship in a Triple Threat match, which will also feature Josh Briggs. This marks Dijak’s debut in a prominent match during a WrestleMania weekend premium live event in WWE.
In an NXT Exclusive, Dijak opened up about his thoughts leading up to his title match at NXT Stand & Deliver. Dijak called himself the greatest WWE Superstar to have never won a title since Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts and then made it clear at NXT Stand & Deliver, it is finally time to crown him the new champion.
”So let me tell you a story about my WWE career. I was thinking about this earlier. This weekend is WrestleMania weekend. I’ve been here for seven of those, if you can believe it. Guess how many of these weekends I’ve been featured on a premium live event, Mr. PLE himself? Did you guess zero? Guess the answer’s zero, if you can believe that. In 2020, I was supposed to be on my first, but that got canceled due to the pandemic. Of course. This match isn’t just the biggest match physically of the entire weekend. No, it’s the biggest match of my entire career. It’s been kind of a long career. I’m the greatest professional wrestler that’s never held a championship in this company’s history since Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts. Think about that. All I need is this one. This Saturday, at Stand & Deliver, it’s time to finally crown me.”
Quite a few changes were already made to NXT Stand & Deliver’s card as well. We will have to wait and see whether Dijak will end up becoming the new NXT North American Champion when all is said and done at NXT Stand & Deliver.
