Kalisto On Not Getting Booked On SmackDown Since Being Drafted
WWE Superstar Kalisto took to social media to speak out about not being booked on SmackDown since he was drafted there.
In the video, Kalisto talks about how it has been 161 days since being drafted to SmackDown. He says that he doesn't cry about not being booked, he uses it as "fuel for his fire."
He also called out his former Lucha Party members, Gran Metalik and Lince Dorado. He said that they lack patience and they need to "swim with the sharks."
Premier show. The land of opportunity. Smackdown. Thank you. Gracias. Thank you for allowing me to sit at your table. I am beyond grateful. But unfortunately, there's only room for one at that table. I'm sorry, guys. Lucha House Party. I mean don't get me wrong. Lince Dorado, he is the king of Lucha extreme. Gran Metalik? Well respected in Mexico and the king of the ropes. But you guys lack...you lack patience. You guys need to learn still. You need to survive just like I did. You need to swim with the sharks just like I did. You need to learn.
Do you guys believe that it has been 161 days? 161 days since I've been drafted to Smackdown. I know what you guys are thinking. You think that's a disrespect to me? That's a demotion to me? You think I went home and cried because I'm not booked? No. Every single day, every hour, minute, second...I used that as fuel for my fire. And that fire is building up and it keeps building and it keeps burning for that one match and that one motivation that kept haunting me and it keeps haunting me forever. You guys know what I'm talking about. I mean, we all want the same thing. So you are going to have to just...wait.
