Dijak stated that the Stamford-based company never made him an offer and denied him a new contract at the deadline. The former T-Bar admitted that two months ago he was perhaps on his best run in NXT. He had an excellent WrestleMania weekend, participating in one of NXT’s best Triple Threat matches against Oba Femi and Josh Briggs.
