“I had no purpose” former Tag Team Champion finally confirms why he quit WWE

It’s WrestleMania weekend, which means all WWE’s stars have headed to Las Vegas, including several ex-WWE stars.

One of the names who has been part of a discussion with Busted Open Radio is Road Dogg, who quit WWE earlier this year. While there were several reports about his reasons for quitting the company where he became a household name, the former champion was able to share his reasons in his own words.

“I feel like I don’t need to tell you what happened, I feel like if you watch that show [UNREAL] you saw what happened, and so here I sit with you tonight, and I’m a happy man because of it. I have friends there that are still gonna be there, I have gripes; I do have gripes, but in saying that, it even sounds sh**ty to say, like you’re going to gripe about some stuff then. Some of the people there are still my friends, I feel like I was done a little wrong, and I feel like I was receiving a paycheck and I didn’t have any purpose. I was making a dollar but I wasn’t making any decisions.” he revealed.

It seems that Road Dogg reached the point in his WWE career where he didn’t have the input that he once did within the creative process. It was his decision to walk away from the company, and now he seems happy with the path that he has taken instead.

Road Dogg referenced WWE Unreal

Unreal has become a controversial show for fans and members of the roster since there are some who are happy with it and some who believe it is destroying the business.

Road Dogg made it clear that his presence on the show was one of the things that fans could see he was ready to walk away. The business has changed a lot over the past few years, with Vince McMahon walking away and TKO taking over. The whole process backstage has changed as much as the process on the screen, and it seems that there have been a number of beloved stars who have become victims of the changes.

Road Dogg is a Hall of Famer and someone who was well respected backstage, but it was time for him to move forward.
