Former NXT star Bull Dempsey recently spoke with Sam Roberts about his release from NXT. Dempsey explained that he thinks he was released from WWE after getting some backlash for the “Bull-Fit” vignettes.
“I think there were some issues with using food. It was never said to me, but I always had that feeling because all of a sudden the word came down that, ‘Hey, maybe we’ll re-visit it down the line, but no more food.’”
Dempsey added that he was always pitching ideas to creative about working with NXT GM William Regal because the segments got over and Regal was so open to working with him.
Dempsey, who now works on the indie scene as Bull James, was asked about a possible return to NXT.
“We’ll revisit (you) in no specific timeframe, go do your thing, have fun, have some life experiences, keep in touch, and we’ll see where things go.”
