11-year veteran breaks silence after major announcement during WWE Draft Night 2 on RAW

A WWE veteran was recently announced to be drafted to RAW, which led to him making a strong statement just after the announcement.

The veteran in question is Dijak, who has been involved in the wrestling industry since 2013. It was in 2017 that he joined NXT, gradually making a name for himself with his performances. While he has not won any titles in the Stamford-based promotion yet, his move to RAW certainly implies that he may have a promising career ahead of him.

Speaking just after his status as a RAW Superstar was announced, Dijak said that he was expecting the move. He then put over Logan Paul's Prime and the rest of the roster.

"Absolutely expecting it. I mean I know who I am. They all know who I am. First of all shoutout to Logan Paul for this amazing Red Prime. This is delicious, first time I ever tried it. It's all red, all day. I got something that a lot of these people here don't have. And these are great talented superstars here. A lot of them are very very impressive."

He further added that fans were about to feast their eyes on Dijak every Monday.

"What they've never been is they've never been drafted to Monday Night RAW before. I have okay? But that's in the past. T-Bar is dead. Retribution is dead. What's alive is Dijak. That's my real name, Dijak, okay? Everybody is about to feast your eyes on the Dijak hijack of Monday Night ratio." [0:55 onwards]
