Former WWE star Eric Young recently gave his view on his consideration for a coaching role in WWE. As the promotion has recently hired a number of coaches, Eric Young revealed his wish if he would accept the coaching role.
Eric Young joined Impact Wrestling in 2019 after a failed main roster run in the WWE. Since then he is going well and it seems like he can take back his glory days along with the promotion.
Eric Young On a Possible Coaching Role In WWE
Young has wrestled in the Impact Wrestling for 12 long years. He joined the promotion way back in 2004 when it was going by the name of Total Nonstop Action. He had been through so many different personas and gimmicks in the process and he played everything perfectly.
It was not that Young’s complete WWE run was bad. He was doing really good in the NXT with his faction – Sanity. But things did not go pretty well in the main roster. We hope to see he will become one of the best in the business under Impact Wrestling.
Recently Eric Young revealed in he considered a coaching role in WWE. Here is what had to say;
“I don’t think so. I think it is something that I’d be good at. I’ve trained guys. I’ve trained Cody [Deaner], Crazzy Steve, I trained Shawn Spears, Jake O’Reilly who worked for All Japan and is a big time guy on the independents in Ontario, [Canada]. Yeah, it’s something that I do like to do.
“But I feel like when I’m done in-ring, I’m probably gonna disappear and you probably won’t see or hear from me for quite a while. Me and my wife are planning to sell all our stuff and move out of our house, buy an RV.
“It’ll probably be a fifth wheel and a truck. Just traveling and she works remotely so she will keep her job and that will fund our adventures and that’s what I’m gonna be doing. I know that John Laurinaitis said anytime I want, I can produce for them [WWE]. I think if I asked Hunter, I can work at NXT if I want.
“Obviously with Scott [D’Amore] and them, I could work there. It’s something I think that I would be a valuable asset because of my experience, all the different things I’ve done. I’ve seen the card from every angle. I’ve been the opening match, I’ve been the popcorn match, I’ve been the main event, I’ve been in hardcore matches and tags.
“I was wrestling women before it was popular. Yeah, I’ve done lots of things and I love that about my career that I’ve seen it from a lot of different angles and I think it gives me a very wide sense of what’s really going on, it gives me an appreciation for the whole show because I’ve seen it, I’ve been a part of it from every angle. A lot of people can’t say that and that’s a cool thing where I’m singular that way.”
