As noted, Bill DeMott and WWE have announced DeMott has resigned as head trainer of NXT, and according to F4WOnline.com, DeMott has left WWE “completely,” and will not be working with the company in any capacity.
According to comments by director and screenwriter Max Landis, who is friends with several names in wrestling, the general feeling is that DeMott’s departure is good news for those in NXT.
Landis wrote the following (which was also shared / retweeted by former TNA star Joey Ryan):
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.
