Congratulations to former WWE Superstar Matt Cardona!
Former WWE Superstar Matt Cardona (fka Zack Ryder) broke some great news on social media regarding his personal achievement. Cardona has been gaining popularity with AEW fans as well.
Matt Cardona gained prominence during his time in WWE under the name, Zack Ryder. He was released from the promotion in 2020 and moved on to the independent scene. Cardona has also made multiple AEW appearances while being The Indy God including recently as well.
The former WWE Superstar recently feuded with Chris Jericho for the ROH World Championship and also wrestled on an episode of Rampage against Bryan Keith. Tony Khan's promotion banked on his popularity and added one of Cardona's shirts to the 'shopAEW.com.' The shirt's sales were terrific as it became the 'top selling shirt' of last week.
The Indy God took notice of his personal achievement and decided to share it with the fans on X/Twitter. Cardona revealed that his shirt was the top-selling shirt on the All Elite merch store which is a big achievement as Matt is not yet signed with AEW.
Cardona also wrote the following in the caption:
"We did it. Thank you! Top selling shirt on @ShopAEW! Go get it now!"

Matt Cardona on failing to defeat a former WWE Champion
At the recent Ring of Honor Final Battle pay-per-view, Matt Cardona challenged the former WWE Champion, Chris Jericho for the ROH World Championship. Cardona failed to capture the title from Jericho and shared a long note on X/Twitter:
"Last night I didn’t get the job done. I failed to beat @IAmJericho for the @ringofhonor World Championship. But I don’t consider this a loss…I consider it a win. I wrestled one of my childhood favorites…one of, if not the greatest, of all time…on a big stage…and I almost had him beat. I’ll learn from this match…I’ll grow from this match…I’ll get better from this match."
Moreover, Matt Cardona is still yet to fully go All Elite and officially sign a contract. Only time will tell if Cardona will permanently join Tony Khan's promotion in the future.
