Booker T: Dijak Could Be A Player If You Moved Him To The Main Roster Right Now, He's Next-Level

Booker T praises Dijak.

Dijak, formerly known as T-Bar of Retribution, has had a career resurgence since he returned to NXT, as he has consistently sparked buzz with his matches. He will compete for the NXT North American Championship at NXT Stand & Deliver, as he will challenge Oba Femi for the title in a Triple Threat match that also includes Josh Briggs.

Speaking on the Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T responded to Dijak, who spoke highly of Booker and his NXT broadcast partner Vic Joseph.

“For me, I just try to make sure I do my part. You’ve got guys like Dijak, who’s next-level. This guy, he’s not a gatekeeper or anything like that. This guy is a general down in NXT, he’s a guy that’s a major player in NXT, and you can move him to the main roster right now, and I really think Dijak could be a player, and I’m not just saying that for the kind words or anything like that. I’ve actually sat and talked with Dijak on many occasions, as far as working on certain little things, and he’s coachable. That’s the thing about this business. You gotta be coachable. So I like I said, I appreciate it," Booker T said.

Dijak recently expressed his gratitude for his run in NXT. Check out his comments here.
