The 40-year-old also discussed ESPN’s partnership with WWE, stating that when he first broached the idea of associating with his former employer, it was shot down for three years. However, his bosses at ESPN finally warmed up to the idea and hence the partnership was born.
Coachman is of the opinion that the ‘Off The Top Rope’ segment which he hosts has not only strengthened his credentials but also helped him forge relationships between ESPN and WWE.
The presenter worked for WWE from 1999 to 2008 before quitting to join his current employer ESPN.
