The landscape of professional wrestling has changed drastically over the last few years, and WWE is no longer the only place where wrestlers can build a name for themselves.
Still, there’s no denying that WWE is the biggest wrestling company in the world, and the company has turned down quite a few aspiring Superstars in the past.
Johnny Gargano recently took to Twitter to say that he still has the rejection email he received from WWE, and sometimes he looks at it to remind himself of how far he’s come.
Gargano also credited the fans for helping him push his career to the next level.
I still have my rejection email from my @WWE tryout back in 2015.
I look at it from time to time to remind myself how far I've come and why any of this happened to begin with.
I didn't take "no" for an answer. I fought for a chance..
But I couldn't do this by myself..

It didn't matter if it was a dark match in Full Sail or my 1st TakeOver at the Barclays Center..
YOU chanted "Johnny Wrestling".. YOU believed in me.. and they listened.
We fought together to make any of this happen.
We will fight to make one last dream come true in New York.

That’s when AEW star Chuck Taylor joined the conversation and showed off a screenshot of a rejection letter he also received from WWE.

It’s safe to say that things have turned out alright for both Gargano and Chuckie T.
