Update on Allegations of Possible Sexual Harassment in NXT; WWE Conducts Internal Investigation and Finds No Wrong Doing

July 9, 2013

As we reported last week, former WWE developmental talent Briley Pierce, and former WWE star Trent Barreta alleged, via Twitter, that there was potential sexual harassment taking place in NXT. Other former WWE developmental stars, including Chase Donovan and Chad Baxter, made a similar claim recently during an interview on Kevin Matthews' "Two and a Half Wrestlers" podcast.

After speaking with WWE, Wrestlezone has been informed that there have been no sexual harassment complaints filed against any employee at the WWE’s training facility in Orlando. Instead, there have been baseless allegations made by disgruntled talent recently released by WWE. Regardless, WZ was told WWE takes these issues seriously and investigated this matter, concluding that there was no wrongdoing.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
