Independent wrestling fans must be tearing their hair out at the thought of Jay Lethal never getting a shot with WWE. Proving himself as one of the finest wrestlers on the planet through his work with Ring Of Honor, the entertaining Lethal also showed his promo chops during a stint with TNA as the manic 'Black Machismo' character.

Waxing lyrical about his chances of ever making it to WWE with The Post & Courier, Lethal admitted he wouldn't consider his career a failure if the McMahon family didn't come calling. Going further, he isn't even actively pursuing a gig with the biggest company around.

Growing up, all Jay Lethal wanted to do was wrestle in WWE. Now, he views things differently and believes he has made it as a pro wrestler all by himself. That grounded outlook allows Lethal to be happy despite never getting the call from WWE.
