Matt Cardona has signed a merchandise contract with WWE,
allowing the company to promote and market apparel under the
Zack Ryder name.
Cardona however has not signed a deal with WWE to return to
the company, and continues to do his own thing on the
independent scene.
Zack Ryder merchandise popped up on WWE Shop immediately
following his Smackdown appearance where he lost to LA
Knight in The Last Time Is Now tournament. It was his first
time as Zack Ryder in a WWE ring since 2020.
“This might be a one time shot, I might get the call
tomorrow, but it doesn’t matter because I’m Zack Ryder and
I’m always ready,” Cardona said in a post-match interview
published on WWE’s YouTube. “And I guess I can say this: Woo
woo woo, you know it.”
