Sean Waltman: The Game Changer in Wrestling’s Landscape

Published on

Bruce Prichard reflects on how Waltman’s unique style reshaped the WWF in the early ’90s.

In a recent episode of “Something To Wrestle With Bruce Prichard,” Bruce delves deep into Sean Waltman’s impact on the wrestling industry. Discussing Waltman’s distinctive style and stature, Prichard highlights how he played a pivotal role in changing the perception of superstars in the WWF back in 1993.

Prichard recalls that while he didn’t immediately foresee Waltman’s style as the future of wrestling, he was captivated by the skill and presentation Waltman brought to the ring. Drawing parallels, Bruce mentions the Rock ‘n’ Roll Express, Ricky Morton, and Robert Gibson, who managed to captivate audiences with their unique style despite not being the biggest names in the business. Their ability to engage the audience and introduce them to a different wrestling style was reminiscent of Waltman’s influence.

Prichard emphasizes that wrestlers like Sean Waltman and Jerry Lynn stood out because of their technique and speed, especially when pitted against larger opponents. Their approach made their matches believable, setting them apart from the rest. In essence, as the Lightning Kid, Sean Waltman and his contemporaries brought a fresh perspective to wrestling, making it more dynamic and engaging.
