— At last week’s NXT television tapings at Full Sail Live in Winter Park, Florida, Mauro Ranallo and Nigel McGuinness called the action alongside Beth Phoenix instead of Percy Watson. PWInsider.com reported that Watson is still with WWE, but it now appears that he quit.
Casey Michael of Squared Circle Sirens revealed today on Twitter that Watson quit WWE to pursue an acting career.
“DEAD at Percy Watson quitting NXT,” Michael wrote. “He wants to do acting and not be a commentator/personality/wrestler apparently.”
