As noted earlier, Bill DeMott has stepped down as NXT head trainer after recent allegations toward him. Mike Johnson of PWInsider reports that Matt Bloom, a.k.a. Jason “Tensai” Albert, will be taking over DeMott’s responsibilities as the interim head trainer.
According to Max Landis, a Los Angeles-based director and screenwriter, talent in NXT are elated over the news.
The texts I'm getting from my friends from NXT right now are basically along the lines of "We got Bin Laden" levels of emotional release

Very surprised that in an industry full of giant unstable bruisers with informal martial arts training, no one ever just beat DeMott's ass.
