Shawn Michaels addresses Brooks Jensen situation & WWE status

Jensen has been working a storyline which has included him saying he’s departed WWE after he was kicked out of the Performance Center by NXT management after voicing frustrations about how he was being used.
This has all been a storyline and it’s now made its way to TV, with Shawn Michaels involved.

Michaels said:
“Over the past several months there have been many disturbances in NXT caused by one young man – Brooks Jensen.
“If you follow Brooks on social media, he’s made some disparaging remarks about the NXT brand.
“I’ve seen reports claiming Brooks was released from his contract, but that is not the case.
“After a split from Josh Briggs, Brooks began to spiral and he was asked by NXT management to take a sabbatical to clear his head and to get himself together.

“Unfortunately, that didn’t happen. We were forced to take action to keep him away from live events and TV.
“The easiest thing to do after his behavior would be to let him go. But Brooks is a part of the NXT family, and I believe in second chances.
“Next Tuesday, I’d like to invite Brooks to have a sit-down discussion with our NXT GM Ava to talk about his future and to see if we can steer him in the right direction. Thank you.”
