Eric Bischoff Questions X-Pac’s Absence from WWE’s Coaching Ranks

One Big Thing

Former WCW President Eric Bischoff expresses surprise at Sean Waltman (X-Pac)’s absence from WWE’s coaching staff, particularly given his proven teaching abilities and connection to current WWE management.

Why It Matters

With DX members Triple H and Shawn Michaels leading WWE’s main roster and developmental system, Waltman’s potential addition could strengthen WWE’s training program.

Key Details

• Bischoff recently worked with Waltman during “WWE LFG” filming in Orlando
• He praised Waltman’s coaching skills and passion for teaching
• Waltman currently lives in Hollywood with his wife, who has an established career there
• His last WWE match was in July 2002
• He entered the WWE Hall of Fame in 2019 as part of D-Generation X

By The Numbers

• 20+ years since Waltman’s last WWE match
• 4 years since his WWE Hall of Fame induction

Behind The Scenes

Waltman showed interest in the 2022 Royal Rumble, informing WWE of his availability, though he wasn’t actively pursuing the opportunity. This was shortly before Triple H took control of creative direction.

The Bottom Line

Despite his qualifications and connections, Waltman appears content with his current lifestyle, making occasional wrestling-related appearances while maintaining his California-based life.
