A current AEW star is set to compete in a championship match against Matt Cardona, and the latter has sent a warning to The Indy God ahead of their title clash.

Former WWE Superstar Matt Cardona shares his honest thoughts on independent wrestlers
Former WWE Superstar Matt Cardona, who is one of the biggest stars on the independent scene, recently made a bold claim about independent wrestlers.
Speaking on the Swerve City podcast with AEW star Swerve Strickland, Cardona spoke about talents being too focused on having a great match rather than making money:
"My goal, every single show, it doesn't happen, of course, I want to walk out of there with more merch money than I do getting paid. That is my goal. Because I'm shooting for the stars. This is not the wrestling friendship, this is the wrestling business. You've got to make money. So when I see these guys and girls, like, going over their high spots, and listen, I understand that you need that. I'm not saying don't have a great match, have a great match. But you need to make f***ing money!", he said. [From 00:01 to 00:32]
Matt further added on Twitter:
"Iām sure these comments are going to piss some Indy wrestlers off. I donāt care. MAKE. YOUR. OWN. MONEY. I get it. Iām the x-WWE guy. But Iād argue the majority of people arenāt coming to see Zack Ryder. Theyāre coming to see Matt Cardonaā¦the INDY GOD. I did that. So can you", he posted.
