Ex-WWE Star Admits He Was “Too Immature” For The Company
When WWE closed in the spring of 2001, a host of stars moved over to WWE to varying degrees of success with Mark Jindrak being one of them.
Despite being a two-time WCW Tag Team Champion, Jindrak’s time in WWE is very forgettable despite the athletic star once being poised for a spot in Triple H’s Evolution group – a spot that eventually went to Batista.
Appearing on Developmentally Speaking, Mark Jindrak admitted that he was too immature to be successful in WWE during his run and he feels that it was mediocre:
“I look back on it now and it was mediocre. I wasn’t like a jobber or anything or enhancement talent, I felt like I was in the middle of the pack. Obviously, with Evolution that could have been a big feather in my cap.
“I was kind of too immature. Orton and I liked to joke around a lot and I think that hurt me and my chances … I’m not going to point fingers at anyone, it was mainly my blame. I didn’t take the opportunity I had and run with it.
“My head wasn’t fully into the game, I was still young. From an athlete’s standpoint, in my mind, I was like, ‘I’m a phenomenal athlete so I’m always going to have a place,’ and then when I got released from WWE in 2005 it was nothing personal.”
