Cedric Alexander Comments on Receiving Helpful Career Advice from Paul Heyman

Pro Wrestling Sheet held a recent interview with Cedric Alexander and one of the topics discussed included his thoughts on receiving helpful career advice from Paul Heyman.

“It’s been great working with Paul. He’s really helped me feel more comfortable. He saw a match I had with Bobby Roode months ago on an episode of Main Event and he was a very big fan of it. He’s given me pointers on how to project myself better to fans and small little show business quirks. Because that’s one of the things I’m not 100% comfortable on sometimes, so talking in front of a camera is something that Paul has definitely helped me get more in tune with.”
