My Take
Colt Cabana is the wrestler I'd hold up as proof that there's more than one way to build a career in this business. He's worked for AEW and Ring of Honor as both performer and coach, but what I find most distinctive is how he reinvented himself off the ring as a podcaster. He was arguably ahead of the curve in turning a wrestler's voice into its own platform. That instinct for storytelling and connection tells me he understands the audience as well as anyone. To me his appeal isn't about title runs, it's the everyman charm and creative independence, and I genuinely respect that path.
