Tyler Breeze burst onto the WWE main roster in a feud with Dolph Ziggler. In the time since then, both men would have a rollercoaster journey and Tyler Breeze would be released by WWE in 2021 but, Breeze never forgot an important piece of advice that Dolph Ziggler gave him early on in their program.
Speaking with Chris Van Vliet, Breeze recalled this advice. Apropos coming from Dolph Ziggler, who has always had to fight for his placement in WWE, Dolph explained to Tyler why he will always be valuable to a company like WWE.
Chris Van Vliet shared the following quote with WrestleZone:
“There was one time where I thought we should have won something. I think it was a battle royal on SmackDown. The winners would get a tag team title shot, and it was when [Breezango] were really hitting with The Fashion Files. I think they put over The Hype Bros. I remember feeling that tonight should have been our night. That’s really the only time that I have thought that. In the end, I think that people followed me and got behind me because I never really won that… In reality, if you look at my career, I never really got that push. I was always there. Dolph Ziggler gave me the perfect thing when I started working with him. He says ‘Look, man. It’s very clear who the guy is. If it’s not you, chances are it will never be you. They won’t hand you the ball, but you will work with those guys. Even when you steal the ball from those guys, they still won’t give it to you. But you will always be used because they know they can rely on you’ That’s why you get this underground following which Dolph did, which I did. The people know that they want something to happen and it just won’t happen. It builds this cult following for you that translates into everything you do. I love being in that category. I think it’s really cool that people get behind you because the machine never did.”
Unfortunately, Tyler was released by WWE in June of this year along with several other superstars.
