Former 205 Live General Manager Drake Maverick made an appearance on The Bump today where he spoke about a wide range of topics including his WWE release. 

Despite being one of many wrestlers and staff who were released by the company, Maverick will be working some matches for WWE in the Interim Cruiserweight Title Tournament that starts tonight on NXT. Here is what he had to say: 

“I think everybody misconstrued my message somewhat a lot of the times,” Maverick informed.”You know, away from the WWE, we all have our own lives and our own problems and situations, but, I have a chance. Nobody else was as fortunate as me. I don’t think anybody in the history of the WWE has had a chance like this on their way out to potentially save their job, and I have that chance. I’m more fortunate than anybody in the world.

“I’m more fortunate in regards to other people outside of the WWE that are going through hard times and bad situations, [espeically] with what’s going on in the current climate. It’s horrible. You don’t take it seriously until it just slaps you in the face. Last Wednesday, it slapped me right in the face. My deepest sympathies go out to everybody who’s been affected by what’s going on in the world. But, I’ve got to think about me now; I have a chance. If I’m going out, I’m going out swinging. All I ever wanted when I was here in the WWE was to compete in the ring and be the star that I know I am. I felt like there was always an obstacle to overcome. Whether it was knocking on Vince’s door and six other people were knocking on his door first. Whether it was who I had to ask, what I had to do, how to get in the ring before shows, [I did all of this] just so people would look at me and go, ‘That guy has got something.’

“I’ve had the NXT crew following me around the last two weeks. You know, you don’t let the world know these things because when it drops, that’s when you’ll see it. They were following me for two weeks up until that point, documenting my return to the ring. I’m sure it’ll be on WWE’s YouTube channel, and will be the biggest turn of events since Drew McIntyre was supposed to wrestle for the WWE Championship in front of 90,000 people. Something will come along and will switch the course of destiny. They’re still letting me compete in the tournament; this is the story now. It’s my life. This is more than anything. What’s more likable now, than somebody fighting for their jobs? What’s going through my mind now is just, again, I’m very fortunate and very blessed, but I’m going to show them. I’m going to stick it to them. I’m going to tell the person that made this decision that they’re wrong, and I’m going to do it the professional way. I’m going to do it the right way. I’m not going to whine, I’m not going to complain. I’m going to go out there, and I’m going to go show them.”
