#3 Give him a manager
It’s no secret that Jack Swagger’s biggest hurdle has always been a lack of mic skills. His in-ring work is fine, but he’s never been able to connect with the audience as a character unless he’s had a manager backing him up. If it worked well before with Vickie Guerrero and it worked well with Zeb Colter, why not try it again?
Now that we know Kurt Angle is back in the fold with the WWE, he could have been a perfect choice to be paired up with Swagger to help give him what he’s missing.
Not only is Angle immensely popular, he’s also someone who has been linked to Swagger for the entirety of the latter’s career despite their paths never crossing, just due to a few obvious parallels.
Angle could have been used as a mentor to get Swagger back on track, similar to the Darren Young and Bob Backlund duo, but without the comedic element. He could teach him a few new tricks on how to torque the ankle lock and how to incorporate an amateur wrestling style that leads to multiple world titles instead of just one.
