Former WWE star PJ Black (who wrestled as Justin Gabriel in the promotion) has described his decision to leave in 2015 as "crazy".

PJ appeared on 'So Catch' and openly discussed his impulsive January '15 departure; Gabriel fled WWE just 24 hours before he was scheduled to enter the 2015 Royal Rumble match. His last televised bout was a loss to Rusev on the 14 January edition of Main Event.

Now, Black isn't so sure he made the right call, but spoke about being very unhappy towards the end of his WWE tenure. The ex-Nexus high flyer went on to say he views life as "a video game", and that he has had some great experiences since leaving the company.

He's just not certain he went about things the right way, and wonders if his WWE run could've turned into something better had he stayed.

PJ is proud that he defied doubts from his countrymen and women back in South Africa to become a star on the WWE stage though. That's something he'll always hold dear. Also, who knows, maybe he'll return to the fed someday.
