Chris Sabin Talks Working As An Agent In IMPACT, Says He Likes Having Experience In That Field

Chris Sabin is interested in stepping into a backstage role after his in-ring career is over.

Sabin, who is approaching his 23 year anniversary in wrestling, is widely regarded as one of the best performers of his generation.

Despite being 41 years old, Sabin is still at the top of his game, as he is the current X-Division Champion in IMPACT Wrestling. Sabin and his tag team partner, Alex Shelley, have also recently held tag team gold in NJPW STRONG, GCW, and IMPACT.

While appearing on the latest episode of Sunday Night’s Main Event, Sabin was asked if he was interested in working in a backstage capacity once his in-ring career is over.

“Yeah, all of the above is an option really. I would be interested in anything like that, very possibly starting a school and training people or, I’m actually right now, I still agent and wrestle at the same time. So I’m still gaining experience as a backstage agent, I started doing that in 2019 so that’s four years of experience. I really like having that in my back pocket, because that’s a job position in every major wrestling company in the US, they have backstage agents. So just being able, if my in-ring career ended, I would still be able to agent, I would be happy with that as well. As long as I could work somewhere or have some job related to the wrestling business, I’d be happy.”

Sabin is set to defend his X-Division Championship against Lio Rush at IMPACT’s Slammiversary pay-per-view. Fans can learn more about Slammiversary by clicking here.
