WWE SmackDown Superstar Carmelo Hayes reacted to a tweet from the USA Network, commemorating the one-year anniversary of him being drafted to SmackDown from NXT.
The tweet from the USA Network states, “While this year did not go as he expected to, Carmelo is starting to turn it around! #SmackDown.”
Carmelo later replied, “Regardless of what was expected or not this year, I never measured my success on Championships or winning matches. When I got the ball it was a first down or touchdown. Stole the show and had banger matches with anyone and everyone. Traveled the world and honed my craft against the best. Wrestled the WWE Champion 10+ times and got to work and learn from legends and future hall of famers. Im winning in every way possible. I killed s*it this year and was drafted first for a reason. You can’t deny what won’t be denied. Haven’t even started cooking yet. #Happy1Year #Marathon 🏁🎯”
Carmelo won this year’s Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal the night before WWE WrestleMania 41.
