But, the GCW star feels that the two had one good thing going for them which was their finisher, Hype Ryder. The Hype Ryder was a variation of Cardona's Rough Ryder move, which he performed when he wrestled as a singles star.
I hate to admit this, but the Heart Attack/Rough Ryder AKA Hype Ryder with @MojoMuhtadi was a pretty damn sick move. https://t.co/nULijRRh4k

Rawley and Cardona, who were known as the Hype Bros. in WWE, had a two-year run together, featuring in "WWE NXT" as well as the main roster. The team came to an end after Rawley turned on his tag team partner, eventually leading to a feud between them. These days, Rawley and Cardona have expressed their hatred for each other, with the former even claiming that Cardona is one person he loves to hate. Rawley has also added that the two will never team together again, and the next time they are in the ring together is when they will fight each other.
