Report: Former WWE Producer Pat Buck Now Working With AEW
Pat Buck left WWE shortly after WrestleMania 38
Several week after leaving WWE, former WWE producer Pat Buck reportedly worked the April 13 AEW: Dynamite and will continue with the promotion as a producer.
The report comes from PWInsider, who state that Buck worked backstage last night, and was also said to have been backstage at the April 6 Dynamite as well.
News of Buck departing WWE came at the beginning of April, with Buck leaving WWE shortly after WrestleMania 38, an event where he produced the main event Undisputed WWE Universal Championship clash between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar, as well as WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair vs. Ronda Rousey..
Buck left WWE as he felt he had achieved everything he wanted to as a producer, with the main events of WrestleMania serving as his swansong. Buck also stated that he wanted to spend more time with his family and running his wrestling school, which AEW’s less-intensive schedule would surely allow him to do.
As well as producing for WWE, Buck was involved with talent relations, and also acted as a liaison between WWE and indie talents booked for extra work for WWE TV.
