Injured NXT Star Returns At Live Event, Rich Brennan Talks Tom Phillips

A few months ago SAnity went through some changes. When Sawyer Fulton went down with an injury, he was removed from the group and then replaced by Killian Dain. Friday night at the NXT live event in Venice, Fulton returned from injury and he interrupted a segment then attacked Chinese recruit Yanbo “Boa” Wang. You can check out some photos from his return below.

Fulton also commented on his return when he posted the following:

Former WWE announcer Rich Brennan was recently a guest on the Intelligent Wrestling Conversation podcast where he talked about his run with the company and more.

During the interview Brennan opened up about how Tom Phillips made life difficult for one of his friends down at the WWE Performance Center and how politics came into play. You can check out the full episode here and see what he had to say below.

“I’ll address that real quick. That tweet was sent to her by somebody. And to be honest with you, that was more in reference to someone else at the Performance Center than it was to me, or than it was with me… you know, if you want to say giving people a hard time or making it difficult for somebody to get ahead. There was somebody else who was at the Performance Center who was basically handcuffed from doing anything that the announcers were supposed to do at the PC, because… you know what…? To hell with it.”

“Tom [Phillips] made it difficult for a friend of mine who was there. Quite honestly, my friend Alex [Del Barrio] who was hired, who was there. Now, at that point, I wasn’t at the PC on a day-to-day basis but I know Alex and I know he works hard and I know he’s enthusiastic and into the product and whatever. But there were certain things… for instance, when I got to the PC that I was allowed to do and that I was told to do because that was part of the learning process that, now that this guy is there, my friend is there, and he’s supposed to be going through that whole process, except he’s being told, ‘No, you can’t do this, this, this, this and this.’ Then what is he supposed to do? So that had more to do with that than it did with me. But politics… that’s part of it. Do I blame Tom and some of the other people involved? They wanted their guy. I wanted my guy. He won, so there you go.”
