Matt Cardona has done just about everything there is to do in independent wrestling, establishing himself as one of the top names on the scene and winning titles in GCW, NWA, TNA, HOG, AIW, and more.
One thing Cardona hasn't accomplished, though, is stepping into the the realm of Josh Barnett's Bloodsport.
Speaking to Ariel Helwani on the MMA Hour, Cardona was asked if he's wrestled Barnett.
“I have not. We’ve been talking about it. Matt Cardona, Bloodsport debut. I think I would love it, but I would need some proper MMA training. I wouldn’t want to make a mockery of myself or MMA. I’d want to take it very, very seriously. Josh and I have talked about it. I think sometime in 2025 you’ll see that," he said.
Barnett is set to face Tom Pestock (Baron Corbin in WWE) in a Bloodsport match at The People vs. GCW.
Cardona will hold an open challenge at the event.
