One WWE star thinks they’re “too f*ckin good” to miss WrestleMania.

Outside of getting their hands on championship gold, the goal of every Superstar is to land a spot on the card at WrestleMania. So naturally, when that doesn’t happen, frustration takes hold.

Back in March, Bronson Reed lashed out after missing out on the chance to face Gunther at the event — a spot taken by Sami Zayn. At night one of the spectacular, Sami Zayn defeated Gunther to take home the Intercontinental Title.

Meanwhile, Reed won the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal on the go-home edition of SmackDown.

Writing on social media just minutes after WrestleMania got underway, Reed vowed to never miss the event again.

I’m too FUCKIN good to be benched 2 years in a row for #WrestleMania

It will not happen again!
