ROH News: Colt Cabana featured in Chicago Tribune, talks marketing himself with comedy for possible WWE return

Feb 9, 2010 - 2:26:45 PM


By James Caldwell, Torch assistant editor

CabanaColt2Pose_130WK_3.jpg
Ring of Honor wrestler Colt Cabana was profiled by the Chicago Tribune for his new regularly-scheduled comedy shows in the Chicago area. Cabana has been working on his stand-up routine for a few months as he tries to branch out into other forms of entertainment to market himself with an eye on a possible WWE return.

"A lot of guys get released by WWE and vanish. I'm staying on and wrestling full time on TV and I'm doing comedy," Cabana told the Tribune newspaper. "I like to think that by doing comedy, it shows I'm an asset to WWE in and outside of the ring."

Cabana says he hired an agent to help him find acting roles, as well. Read the entire interview in the Tribune's Leisure section.

Caldwell's Analysis: A year or two from now, WWE will have that "WWE TV Network" with 24 hours of time to fill every day. I imagine there will come a day when WWE comes knocking on Cabana's door looking to do something with him to create entertaining TV. It's inevitable. If Kozlov can get a role on Santino's sitcom, then Cabana will assuredly find a slot on WWE TV.
