12 Things We Learned From Justin Gabriel On Talk Is Jericho

11. Leaving WWE

"I quit my dream job, basically." Chris mentions how rare it is for someone to leave the company and asks him what his mindset was that led to him making such a huge decision. Black said it had been brewing for about a year or so, but that he's not even sure what triggered it on that particular day. "It's just...I've been moving down on the card and I've been trying really hard, you know, to get back up. I've been working on this new character and everything they told me to work on, I did. Nothing I did seemed to work and it was kind of frustrating." He said he sees himself as an artist and that they were killing his creativity, taking away his platform to show people what he can do, and on that day no f*cks were given and he just decided he was done.
