Big Name Returns To WWE Replacing The Fired Bill DeMott
Dr. Tom Prichard has been hired by World Wrestling Entertainment as the new head trainer of the company's Deep South Wrestling developmental territory in Georgia. Bill DeMott, the former head trainer at Deep South, was released by the company this past weekend.
Prichard was last with WWE in 2004 when he was let go after a changeover of sorts took place internally within the company when John Laurinaitis replaced Jim Ross as the new head of WWE's Talent Relations. Since leaving WWE, Prichard has been a regular on the independent scene and had held a number of training seminars across the United States.
WWE.com has posted an article on Dr. Tom Pritchard taking over for WWE’s Deep South Wrestling developmental territory. Pritchard noted “Things happened in the past, but I want to look forward, not backward,” he told WWE.com. “I am grateful for the opportunity to come back and work with young talent again. That’s my strong suit these days in the business. I’ve been given another opportunity, and I’m appreciative and grateful. The future is bright, and I will repay WWE by doing the best job I can.”
