Former WWE star Matt Rehwoldt (Aiden English in WWE) recently interviewed with Donagh Corby where The Drama King revealed he wanted to work in theater while in WWE to create a crossover of fans. Rehwoldt adds that he thought about having WWE follow him around with cameras while he rehearsed for a hypothetical show.
I wanted to see if I could work something out, especially when I was doing Drama King. Like, ‘hey, let me take six weeks off, do a play in New York or something’ and have WWE follow me around as I rehearsed and did the show.
We could appeal to theatre fans and cultured people. You want to get more cultured people watching wrestling? Let’s do this little crossover thing.
