Sexual Harrassment at NXT??

Rumors have surfaced via social media that Divas at WWE’s NXT
developmental territory have been subjected to sexual harassment
by a trainer.
The trainer has been referred to as their strength coach, but
hasn’t been mentioned by name.
Cryptic tweets have been sent by recently released NXT talent
Briley Pierce (aka Ryan Nemeth, Dolph Ziggler‘s brother) and
Trent Barreta.
Most recently and most openly were the tweets sent last week by
Pierce. He has since deleted the tweets, but a screencap of them
was posted online:
Briley @HotYoungBriley
Nothing "Hugh Morris" about enabling/protecting a sexual
predator, or threatening the jobs of women who complain about
him. #NXTmeanscoverup
Briley @HotYoungBriley
At post-show meetingwill someone please say "Hey bosses after
youre done patting selves on back - our strength coach is a huge
pervert
Briley @HotYoungBriley
Too vague?? #WWE
Briley @HotYoungBriley
Is it true that the longer a guy gets away with sexual
harrassing and victimizing women at work, the better he is at
designing workouts?
Last month, Barreta made similar claims in reply to a fan’s
tweet about NXT Diva Bayley:
Sasa Zekanovic @SasaZekzi
Is it just me or is @itsBayleyWWE the female @trentylocks? They
look very similar...
TRENT? ✔ @trentylocks
@SasaZekzi @itsBayleyWWE nope. She's way prettier... I don't
even get sexually harassed by my strength coach.
n today’s episode of former developmental talent Kevin
Matthews‘s podcast Two and a Half Wrestlers, he spoke with
fellow ex-NXT wrestlers Chase Donovan and Chad Baxter about a
number of issues in the developmental system, and the sexual
harassment rumor came up briefly.
The men acknowledged that they had heard the story from several
other people, saying that the incidents were about a trainer
“taking pictures with the Divas”. Head trainer Bill DeMott, they
said, did not want the story to reach WWE Corporate and in a
sense “swept it under the rug”.
Of course, these rumors have not been confirmed, but given the
incredible amount of pressure felt by talent in the
developmental system, it’s not outside the realm of possibility
that they would be afraid to speak out about a matter like this.

personally I don't think Trent Baretta, Briley Pierce, Chad
Baxter and others who have made these accussations on twitter
would make things like this up... I think WWE have contacted
them and told them to take the tweets down before USA Network
got wind of it... I think WWE want to keep it hush hush and act
like nothing is wrong...
