Matt Cardona has been around the wrestling business long enough to know all the lingobut theres one term he absolutely cant stand.
In a recent chat with Bobby Fish, Cardona made it very clear: calling someone a jobber is one of the most disrespectful things you can do in the industry. According to Cardona, the insult stings not just because its demeaningbut because it mocks someone for doing exactly what the business asks of them.
What frustrates him even more is how that same word has made its way into the locker room vernacular among current talenta far cry from the way things were when he started in WWE back in 2007.
Cardona added that there was a mutual respect in the locker room back then, regardless of where someone was on the card. That respect, he claims, has started to erode as the term jobber gets thrown around more freely.
Cardonas words cut deeper than just a personal gripethey reflect a broader shift in the way wrestlers treat each other and how fans mimic that behavior. For a performer who has spent nearly two decades grinding in and out of the spotlight, his message is simple: respect the work, no matter whos doing it.
