Donovan Dijak has a penned his version of a ‘Dear John’ letter to the WWE.
Announcing his exit from the company, Dijak expressed his frustration and disappointment with how the WWE dealt with him.
“Here’s the truth. WWE never negotiated with me. We attempted to negotiate and they stonewalled us. They never made me a single offer, then they informed me they would not renew my contract at the eleventh hour. 2 months ago I was in one of the best matches in NXT history, and a top match of Wrestlemania weekend. On that day, a top executive in WWE told me I was ‘crushing it.’ I was slated to feud for the NXT title but I got called up to RAW instead,” he began.

Dijak would go on to state how well he was doing in NXT. Since joining the black and yellow brand Dijak had received praise from fans not only for his matches but his new persona.
“I consistently outperformed everyone’s expectations, especially throughout 2023 and early 2024. I never complained about anything or was difficult to work with. I tirelessly pitched ideas to anyone who would listen, as recently as the day before I was notified. I never once missed a booking, and I was injured 1 time in 7 years for 3 months,” he wrote.
Dijak revealed that his last day with the company is June 28th.
“I’m thankful, disappointed, but also excited. This has lit a fire under me to relentlessly prove myself to the world. All I ever wanted was a fair shot and now I have the opportunity to go out and take it. That’s enough talk, now it’s time to Do or Dijak,” he concluded.
Dijak began his WWE career in NXT. His first run was highlighted by a feud with Keith Lee. Dijak would move up to the main roster where became T-Bar in the ill-fated Retribution stable.
