Paul Heyman Talks Future Goals, Current Role With WWE, Zeb Colter’s Success


Slam Wrestling! spoke with Paul Heyman about a variety of topics, including his current role with WWE, his future goals with the company and Zeb Colter's success. Below are the highlights:

On his current role with the company:

"If I look at my schedule right now… I don't have one booking as a manager. I'm booked all over Europe, I'm booked all over this country, in two-on-one handicap matches. So I'm booked as a wrestler right now, not as a manager. At 48-year-old, I still have not had formal training as a wrestler. The role has changed. We're not just doing the typical old-school gimmick matches that Lou Albano used to participate in."

On Zeb Colter's recent success:

"I think Zeb fit a need at the moment. When things really click in this industry, it's when they service the needs of the moment, and it ends up playing into the long-term. You have all these hot-button issues in the country, with immigration and health care, etcetera, and here's somebody who, Dutch is very articulate… here's a person that can speak on these subjects from any position that you want him to.He fit the immediate need that the company had to play on these hot-button issues, which then ties into the long-term of, which of his guys can he get across to the public to become bigger stars, into the bigger, more personal issues and money-drawing programs."

On his future goals with WWE:

"I've never managed in the main event at WrestleMania and I would love [that]. There are things that I know Brock wants to accomplish for us in this industry, that I prefer that Brock goes public with those goals when it's time. I know that Brock and I have talked about things that we'd like to accomplish, that we haven't had a chance to do yet. Hey, I'd love to be the first guy to ever manage the WWE and the WWE World heavyweight champion at the same time as well."

Jack Swagger On How Zeb Colter Became His Manager


WWE Superstar Jack Swagger recently spoke to Music Recall Magazine:

MRM: How did Zeb Colter become your manager?

Swagger: It’s a cool story. We were a couple weeks out from the Elimination Chamber in 2013. And we were in Nashville for a Raw TV taping, and Zeb lives in Nashville, and we knew we wanted another character to go along with the storyline. Triple H had an idea to bring him in, and he came in. He started discussing some ideas, and he did a couple promos on tape and Vince and Hunter just loved it. It was very meant to be. He already had the mustache and fit the character to a T.

Rumor Mill - Backstage Plans For Antonio Cesaro and Jack Swagger


Look for WWE to break up the Real Americans team of Jack Swagger and Antonio Cesaro, with Cesaro turning babyface. WWE officials are hoping that this Cesaro Giant Swing move he's been doing will impress the audience and help get him over more in preparation for his face turn.

No word on what will be done with Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter, but one might assume that they'll just go back to how they were before Cesaro joined the faction.

WWE Invites Glenn Beck to RAW


WWE has extended an invitation to talk show host and political commentator, Glenn Beck to appear live this Monday on Raw, in response to a segment that aired on TheBlaze TV yesterday. In the segment, Beck references WWE as “stupid wrestling people,” when criticizing a recent WWE storyline involving WWE characters Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio®, Jack Swagger® and Zeb Colter®. WWE is giving Beck the opportunity to address our 14 million weekly viewers and our global fan base, as he believes we are offending our “conservative” fans with this storyline.

Similar to other television shows and feature films, WWE is in the entertainment business, creating fictional characters that serve as protagonists or antagonists. To create compelling and relevant content for our audience, it is important to incorporate current events into our storylines. WWE is creating a rivalry centered on a topical subject that has varying points of view. This storyline was developed to build the Mexican American character Del Rio into a hero given WWE’s large Latino base, which represents 20 percent of our audience.
