Former WWE Superstar shares how much Edge helped him; shows never-seen-before ring gear
A former WWE Superstar shares how much Edge helped him in his career and showed off pictures of his never-seen-before ring gear.
Matt Cardona first debuted in WWE under the ring name Zack Ryder. He appeared alongside Curt Hawkins as part of a tag team. They were called so because they dressed like the Rated-R Superstar and helped him during his matches by pretending to be him.
They also formed a stable with the Hall of Famer called La Familia with the Rated-R Superstar and Vickie Guerrero. This storyline was the catalyst that helped propel Cardona's career to new heights. Soon, Cardona became one of the most popular wrestlers on the roster.
Undoubtedly, Matt Cardona owes a big chunk of his success to the Rated-R Superstar. He recently credited the WWE Hall of Famer for being a big influence on his career while also showing off a gear he never wore on TV.
"Never worn on TV Zack Ryder gear. @myers_wrestling & I were originally going to have our own ring gear right after the Edgeheads debuted. The decision was ultimately made to just continue wearing @edgeratedr’s gear for a while. Without Edge opening the door for us, I wouldn’t be here today."
