CM Punk has made frequent trips to NXT, whether he was rehabbing at the WWE Performance Center or making an appearance on NXT television.
Other stars such as Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, and John Cena have come through Orlando to visit the WWE PC and NXT, imparting advice on members of the roster.
Speaking to MuscleMan Malcolm, NXT North American Champion Tony D'Angelo was asked about advice he's received from some of the veterans in wrestling.
"Cena came in and talked to the whole roster and gave us good advice. CM Punk, he's always around when he's available. He's watching film and telling us what to do, what not to do. He told me, 'Don't let social media...don't look at it.' When you're in the spotlight, you have a lot of people saying a bunch of crap in the comments and DMing you and whatever. It hasn't gotten to me yet, I kind of find it funny to see people hate on others for no reason. I'm sure at some point in my career, I'll get annoyed. I think that's the biggest thing, a lot of people should take that advice because social media is a bunch of people that you're probably never going to meet, just judging you and saying a bunch of stuff that doesn't mean nothing. Also, they're not paying the bills. Is the boss happy, or is wrestlingfan213 happy? The boss is more important. That's my opinion," said Tony D.
Tony D'Angelo is set to defend his NXT North American Title in a Tables, Ladders, and Scares match against Oba Femi at NXT Halloween Havoc.
