WWE Reportedly Had A No Male Manager Policy
Greg Oliver of Slam! Wrestling recently caught up with former WWE writer Jimmy Jacobs. Jacobs, who is now managing Impact’s Kongo Kong said that the WWE has a ‘policy’ not to hire male managers:
“Managing got out of the spotlight somewhere in the 90s, the Attitude Era, when the era of the valet took over, in WWE in particular. From that respect, it’s a lost art. Nowadays, though, look at a guy like Paul Heyman, who’s very, very, very good at what he does, who is as important to the Brock Lesnar package as Brock Lesnar is, I dare say. I think that for so long, it was a WWE policy. WWE really sets the tone for everything else in this business, this kind of trickle down effect. It was literally a policy, ‘Hey we don’t hire male managers.’ It’s really just something that’s just got going again, I think in the last handful of years.”
