Shelton Benjamin is still going strong in the world of wrestling as one-half of the AEW Tag Team Champions alongside Bobby Lashley.
Though his in-ring career isn't over, Shelton is looking at opportunities outside of wrestling.
Speaking on Energis podcast, Benjamin expressed that he is interested in acting and voiceover work.
"I'm excited with them," he said when it was noted that his fans would be exciting to see him in acting roles. "It's something I've always wanted to do. That and voiceovers. I'm a big kid. Not only am I a big kid, I'm a big geek. I went to San Diego Comic Con for the first time and I had to give my agent my wallet (because I didn't trust myself). There's no way. Every penny I made signing autographs would have gone to buying stuff.
"With acting and ventures I want to get into, I'm on the clock now. This stuff has to work. I don't have time to wonder or hope. I try to pick up a breadcrumb as soon as I see it. If I hear something profound or even strange, I try to pick up on it as soon as possible. I'm on the clock. This has to work."
Shelton teamed with Lashley to successfully defend the AEW Tag Team Titles against Dustin Rhodes & Sammy Guevara at AEW Double or Nothing.
