Success in WWE
Success in Ring of Honor
Christopher had a successful career in Chaotic Wrestling as well as in Ring of Honor which is indeed a major wrestling promotion. He won multiple championships in Chaotic Wrestling including their Heavyweight Championship. He also won The Ring Of Honor Top Prospect Tournament in 2015. He also worked on loads of independent circuit promotions.
Signing with WWE
WWE approached to sign him in January 2017. But he was still under contract with Ring of Honor during the time and WWE avoided him to avoid legal threats from the promotion. In September 2017, Christopher finally became a WWE star and he was appointed to the developmental territory of WWE which was the NXT.
NXT Career
His first match in the promotion was against Ricochet in a losing effort. He worked under the ring name Dominik Dijakovic during his first run in the NXT and received a pretty strong booking in the developmental brand of WWE. He participated in some top matches with some big stars. He remained active in the NXT until mid 2020.
Main Roster Debut, Retribution
He made his main roster debut in September 2020 as a member of the heel faction named Retribution. He also got a new ring name T-Bar. But the faction was a massive failure and after its death, Christopher became a jobber in WWE. He remained active in the main roster of the promotion until late 2022 but he could never elevate himself back from the jobber status.
Return to NXT
In October 2022 he was sent back to the NXT and this time he got the ring name Dijak for the first time. He received stronger bookings in the NXT and he remained active in the developmental brand of the promotion for one and a half years. He could not win any championships in the NXT but his run was decent.
Return to the Main Roster
He made his return to the main roster during the WWE Draft 2024 but once again he received a jobber treatment during the draft as he did not feature in the main line of the draft. His fans are not pleased with WWE’s decision not to feature him during the main show of the draft. He is drafted to Monday Night RAW. We seriously hope this time he receives better treatment from his last run in the main roster.
Notable Feuds and Rivalries of Dijak
Christopher could not really have any proper feuds in the main roster. He had a one and a half year long main event run previously but he could not have any proper feuds. He has recently made his way to the main roster again during the WWE Draft and he is yet to have any feuds. But in the NXT he had multiple big feuds. Isaiah “Swerve” Scott was one of his big rivals in the NXT during his first run.
Keith Lee can definitely be considered the biggest rival of Christopher throughout his WWE career. Together the duo had some excellent matches but Lee had been portrayed as the stronger of these two wrestlers. After returning to the NXT in 2022, he had some more feuds with different names. Wes Lee was one of his early rivals. His final Rival in the NXT before getting drafted to Monday Night RAW was Joe Gacy. It was indeed one of his biggest rivalries.
Dijak Injury
Much like most of the professional wrestlers, Christopher has suffered multiple injuries throughout his wrestling career. During his first NXT run, he suffered a knee injury in April 2019. It was a torn meniscus and it required surgery. This injury kept him out of action for over three months and he could not return to action until late July.
Other Details
Christopher made his WWE video game debut in WWE 2K22 as T-Bar. Later, in May 2022, WWE released a patch where his Dominik Dijakovic character was included. He also appeared in WWE 2K23 video game where he again appeared as T-Bar. He appeared as Dijak for the first time in WWE 2K24 which is the latest installment in WWE video game series.
