Sean âX-Pacâ Waltman on Tyler Bate and WWE Taking Their Time with the Younger Talent: âI think theyâre taking their time with him and I think they are because of his age. He was a number one draft pick of mine the first time I ever saw him when I was at Chikara for King of Trios several years ago. And I talked to {William} Regal about him and Regal was just âheâs way too young, so just tell him to keep doing what heâs doingâ and eventually they signed him. Theyâre a lot more careful with the younger guys now and I think that might be it.â
Sean âX-Pacâ Waltman on John Cena Being The Best At Putting Guys Over: âI just have thoughts on the match and how great it was and what a tremendous job John Cena did of putting {Finn} Balor over. And Iâm gonna refer to the tweet I put out after that. No one in John Cenaâs shoes has ever done as good of job as he does putting guys over. As far as the face of the company (John Cena), I donât think anyone has done a better job of putting guys over or lifting/elevating other guys.â
Sean âX-Pacâ Waltman Shares His Thoughts On Andrade versus Rey Mysterio on Smackdown: âWhen I turned it on and I saw the way the match was going, early parts of it, I am like âokay this is gonna be goodâ because they were taking their time and they were doing a slow build and it was good. Respect to those guys, and guys that do that style can start cutting a real frantic pace and itâs really hard to digest and people were in it they were invested. They were taking their time, they were doing wrestling, take-downs. You could just see the people, they werenât dicking around they were all watching, eyes were on the ring, it was really nice to see that⌠It was a nice solid win for him over ReyâŚ. And Zelina Vega I canât put her over enough, sheâs so valuable out there as part of that act. I mean she would do great on her own or with anyone but I really love those two together.â
Sean âX-Pacâ Waltman On The Ring Of Honor/ MLW Situation and The Future of Partnerships Between Promotions: âI donât see how thatâs politics though, how is that politics? {referring to a tweet by Court Bauer} Thatâs not politics, thatâs just business. It might be bad business but itâs not like political maneuverings or something. I donât see that⌠It was only a matter of time until this type of stuff was going to happen, all the great cooperation from All In and what a beautiful thing that was, I am not sure thatâs going to be able to happen like that again moving forward.â
Sean âX-Pacâ Waltman On Ivelisse Velezâs Lucha Underground Contract Comment: âThe thing that I donât get though is alright, if they say â Oh donât worry weâll let you out if you want outâ then put that in writing. If youâre going to do that you shouldnât have a problem putting it in writing. And it should have been put in writing. Itâs lame. Itâs not like sheâs the number one ratings draw on Lucha Underground, let the girl go make a living.â
Sean âX-Pacâ Waltman Shares His Story On The Time He Was Asked To Scout Talent in Mexico After Alberto Del Rio Had Left WWE: â..So Canyon Cemen called me and asked me to go scout talent in Mexico. Andrade was one of the guys, he was {La} Sombra back then he worked for CMLL, his girlfriend was Dark Angel so I hit her up about it⌠cause Canyon was like we need a guy, we need another Del Rio, somebody under 30 that can speak English, six foot and doesnât do drugs. I am like âoh so you basically want me to get you a unicorn.â {laughs}âŚâ
