His official position has yet to be revealed, although it’s assumed that he’ll be working down in NXT developmental as either an on-air talent or trainer.
Pearce is a former five-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion. He’s previously competed for Ring of Honor, TNA Wrestling and PWG as well.
He worked as a backstage producer during the “NXT Takeover: R Evolution” show on Dec. 11. He was also a guest trainer and coach during the first week of December, presumably to tryout for a future role with the company.
