WWE News: Zeb Colter and Jack Swagger break character, admit they are telling stories as a response to Glenn Beck

WWE personalities Zeb Colter and Jack Swagger delivered a promo and then stopped before it was revealed that they were standing in front of a green screen. They identified themselves by their real names Wayne Keown and Jake Hager as they stated that they are in the entertainment business.
