Sean Waltman Wouldn’t Want WWE Creative Role, Feels He’d Do Well As A Kickoff Show Panelist
Sean Waltman comments on where he could fit in in WWE.
With Triple H taking over WWE creative duties in July, he’s leaned on the team he previously assembled in NXT such as former D-Generation X running mates Shawn Michaels and Road Dogg. Billy Gunn is currently employed by AEW while Sean Waltman remains part of the business through appearances, but doesn’t work for one of the top promotions.
Appearing on AdFreeShows, Waltman was asked if he’d consider taking a creative role in WWE.
“No,” he stated. “I’d like to just come in once in a while, like we’re doing on October 10 at Barclays, do little appearances like that. I go and do these Comic Cons and different appearances several times a month and it’s very stress free and I like how my life is right now. I don’t see myself getting on a plane — I get on planes all the time — but to go and have to deal with…sometimes it can get pretty combative and being backstage and clash of opinions. I just assume to stay slightly removed from all of that. If they really needed me, I just don’t think they really need me. Not that I don’t have anything to offer. When I was younger, I use to have a vision, but I’m a 50-year-old man. I listen to the young guys and girls. I wouldn’t mind doing something that didn’t require a huge commitment. You know what I would do? Those panels before the pay-per-views, I would be good at that. Just throwing that out there”
Waltman will be part of the D-Generation X 25th-Anniversary celebration on the October 10 episode of WWE Raw.
