Armando Estrada on Someone in WWE Telling Him That He Was ‘Too Entertaining’

“You find this out later. You get told, ‘Hey, you’re too entertaining.’ It’s like, ‘What do you mean I’m too entertaining? This is an entertainment company. How am I too entertaining?’ And I think I shared this one of the last times we spoke was one of the executive producers said that, ‘Hey, the same things that got you to the dance can get you sent back down,’ and I never understood that until years later.”

On Later Learning That It Was Part of ‘Knowing Your Role’

“As The Rock says, ‘Knowing your role’ and knowing what is expected of you. If you’re in the fifth match, you’re not supposed to have a barnburner or you’re not supposed to have the biggest pop of the night, if that makes sense. You have to save the pops for the guys working on top.”
