Dijak Grateful To Triple H & Shawn Michaels, Waited to be Fired as T-Bar

WWE NXT Superstar Dijak is immensely grateful for the opportunity he's had in the gold brand after being sure he'd be cut as T-Bar. 

Dijak, aka Dominik Dijakovic, was called up to the main roster in 2020 as T-BAR, part of the anarchistic Retribution stable. The group would struggle on WWE TV though with fans finding the gimmick hokey and their masks unintentionally hilarious. 

Retribution Ends & Dijak Begins

With the faction's prospects seemingly dead in the water, Retribution imploded in early 2021 by turning on their leader Mustafa Ali. By late 2021 and throughout 2022, he exclusively competed on WWE Main Event. 

In late 2022, he returned to WWE NXT as Dijak, complete with a video promo showing his T-Bar mask being burned in a fire. Since then, Dijak has gone on to become one of the gold brand's most prominently featured performers and has worked with the show's top names. 

Dijak is Grateful

On this week's episode of WWE NXT, Dijak defeated Joe Gacy in the Asylum match which saw both men use a plethora of weapons. During the match, Dijak hit a moonsault off the top of the cage in a surprising display of high-flying from the big man. 

Taking to Twitter, Dijak spoke about the spot in question and fans who may feel he shouldn't be leaving his feet. Dijak said that he is making the most of the opportunity afforded him in WWE NXT after being sure he would be cut during his T-Bar run.
