Matt Cardona Says Nick Aldis Did Great Representing NWA, Wishes Him Well In Future Endeavors

Nick Aldis has been suspended by the National Wrestling Alliance after he went public with his announcement that he would be leaving the company once his contract expired on January 1, 2023. 

Aldis has been the face of the promotion for the last five years, holding the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship for over 1000 days during that time. 

Matt Cardona is a former NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion himself and he was set to face Aldis at NWA Alwayz Ready before he suffered a bicep injury. 

Appearing on This Is Pro Wrestling, Cardona commented on Aldis leaving the promotion. 

“That’s unfortunate. Nick and I, we have some unfinished business, we were supposed to wrestle at Alwayz Ready, but obviously, I got injured. I feel he’s a great opponent of mine. I don’t think he liked when I came to NWA because it was his baby and he did such a great job representing the NWA, being the face of NWA, he’s got all the tools and I wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors,” he said. 

Billy Corgan detailed what went wrong with Aldis in a recent appearance on Busted Open Radio. You can find his full comments by clicking here. 

Cardona will challenge for the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship at NWA Hard Times 3 in a triple threat bout against Trevor Murdoch and Tyrus. You can view the current lineup for NWA Hard Times 3 by clicking here.
