Heath Slater had been a company man for WWE from a long time and the former Nexus member has spent most of his wrestling career working for WWE in various roles.
However, the former 24/7 Champion is not associated with the company anymore and for the first time in his career, he has the option to choose from the various opportunities that are available in the wrestling world right now.
Slater recently appeared on the Chasing Glory podcast and talking about his future, the former SmackDown champion said that there are many cool things in the wrestling world right now and he wants to dabble into some of that:
“I have never been outside of the WWE. You know, I never got to go to Japan. I’ve never been to any other federation. AEW is amazing, they’re doing good stuff, [they’re] good people. Impact is doing good things. I’ve never ever got to go to ROH; they have so much good talent coming from there. Even NWA is back up with their old school stuff.
There are so many cool things out there that you can do, that’s what excites me.” said Heath Slater. “I want to dabble into some of this because I have never in my life done it. This is like a new journey for me.”
