WWE superstar Carmelo Hayes made quite the entrance on SmackDown, sporting a pair of stylish sunglasses. As he strutted into the ring, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness lingering in the air. The news of three fellow WWE superstars leaving the company had just been revealed, and it was hitting everyone hard.
The three names on the list were Baron Corbin, Indi Hartwell, and Tegan Nox, all of whom had made appearances on Raw, SmackDown, and NXT. Fans were gutted to see them go, and their fellow wrestlers were equally devastated. In an exclusive interview with The Agency, Carmelo Hayes shared his thoughts on the situation.
"It's weird because unfortunately, I've been through this a lot. One day you're working alongside someone, and the next day they're gone. It's like a survivor's guilt, you know what I mean? After a day or two, you start to think, 'Man, I hate to see that for them'."
Hayes had a particularly close relationship with Baron Corbin, whom he had gotten to know during their time in NXT. He spoke highly of the former NFL player turned wrestling veteran and the impact he had on his career.
"Baron was one of the first people to take me under his wing. He did so much for me and gave me valuable advice, not just about wrestling but also about life and money. I'll always be grateful to Baron Corbin, and I hate to see him go. He's incredibly talented, and everyone loved him."
Hayes also gave a special shout out to Indi Hartwell, a rising star in WWE. Johnny Gargano, who had worked closely with Indi in "The Way," shared his thoughts on her potential.
"Indi means a lot to me and my wife, Candice. We have a lot of faith in her, and we're excited to see what she brings to the wrestling world. She's young and has so much untapped potential. Once she starts showing that to the world, people will latch on to her."
As for Tegan Nox, Gargano couldn't help but think back to his own experiences in WWE. Although he acknowledged that anything could happen, he hoped that Tegan would follow a similar path to his and Candice's.
"You never know what the future holds, but it worked out for me and Candice. Hopefully, Tegan will find her way back here, but who knows!"
Hayes added, "Everyone who comes through WWE leaves better. That's one thing you can count on. Anyone who has ever been a part of this company leaves with their stock higher than before."
But what about Baron Corbin, who had been with WWE for over a decade? His future in wrestling was now uncertain after being informed that his contract would not be renewed. He took to social media to say his goodbyes, and fans were left wondering what's next for the former United States Champion.
As for the rest of the roster, they will continue to work hard and leave their mark on the world of WWE. It's a bittersweet reality that comes with the territory, but as Hayes put it, "Everyone who comes through here leaves better." The future may be uncertain, but one thing is for sure - these superstars will always be remembered for their time in WWE.
