Matt Cardona: I Feel Pretty Good. Am I 100%? Having A Real Match Is The Only Way To Test That

Matt Cardona provides a status update.

At GCW Homecoming, Matt Cardona will make his return to the ring, teaming with Broski Jimmy to take on the unlikely duo of Nick Gage and Matt Hardy. This will be Cardona’s first match since tearing his pec back in April.

While appearing on The Ringer Wrestling Show, Cardona stated that he will find out if he is 100% when he steps into the ring at Homecoming. Cardona also talked about how he beat the estimated recovery time.

“I feel pretty good. Am I 100%, I guess we’ll find out at GCW Homecoming. There’s only one way to test if I’m ready to go in the ring, that’s by having a real match. It was four months ago that I unfortunately tore my pec in the middle of the ring. There’s no good time in wrestling to get injured, but this certainly was not a good time. I had just celebrated, if you will, my four years of being released from WWE. I put out this video of all this stuff I accomplished. As I’m posting, I’m like, oh my god, I also have to tell the world that I’m hurt. The doctors told me six to eight months, I said no way. I took my Chelsea Green calendar and I circled GCW Homecoming weekend and I said, ‘I will be back by this.’”
