Colt Cabana Says ‘There Is A Little Bit Of Heartbreakness Going On’ With Being a Producer, Likes Being In The Trenches

Colt Cabana says he has a little bit of heartbreak when it comes to producing.

Cabana has many hats in All Elite Wrestling, but one of the main ones he currently holds is the role of a producer. For a producer in pro wrestling, they assist the talent and referee in putting together and executing plans for how matches are supposed to go. For Colt, he has a little bit of heartbreak due to filling this role and not being an active wrestler.

While speaking to The Close Up with Renee Paquette, Colt Cabana spoke about being a producer in AEW, noting how he enjoys being in the trenches.

“There is a performance. I don’t want to get too much into, like, what a producer does. I like it. I do like it. The performer in me will always want to perform. So there is a little bit of heartbreakness going on. But as a producer, I’m in the trenches and I like being in the trenches. I also- I feel I know wrestling. I was and am so immersed in it for so many years now. I like to, I like that that that knowledge can be used. I like to use that knowledge. I really like when- some people like different things about producing. I really like when I’m talking to the truck and I’m like in the, it’s like I’m almost in the middle of the match and you hear it takes like three people, the wrestlers and the referee, but I feel like the fourth person. Yeah, I really enjoy it. I enjoy it.”

Elsewhere in the same interview, Cabana spoke about Family Guy including an Excalibur cameo earlier this year. You can read more about that here.
