A new report from Mike Johnson of PW Insider has revealed that an NXT writer has departed the promotion. The report noted that Nick Bonanno, a member of NXT's creative team, has exited the company. He reportedly left the company following the last set of television tapings.

Released WWE star is not looking to return to the company
Dolph Ziggler, now known as Nic Nemeth, has disclosed that he is not looking to follow in Drew McIntyre's footsteps and return to the company.
In an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling's Riju Dasgupta, Nemeth disclosed that he asked to leave the company. The veteran added he wanted to spend the second half of his career doing everything else in wrestling, besides being a WWE Superstar.
"I don't have [thoughts] like, 'I gotta get back to WWE.' I asked to leave, and I wanna do a second half of my career where I do everything else but WWE because I've done it. I've been there. I wanna see what I can do on my own. It's like a Twilight Zone episode where the guy's at like the top of a company and he's got all the gold in the world. He goes, 'I wanna go back in time and I wanna redo it and do it all again from day one, put all the hard work in, and prove to everyone that I can do this again.' We're all gonna find out here, am I all show no go? Am I a phony that's been sitting around? No, I'm gonna steal the show every damn night." [7:24 – 7:59]
