He brought up how producing live television every week is a stressful situation, which made him move down to NXT to work with younger talent but is thrown back into the frying pan now that NXT is live every Wednesday on USA Network. 

Dogg confirmed that he’s involved with NXT television as he works as the Performance Center throughout the week and helps writes NXT television. 

News of him moving down as co-lead writer on SmackDown first surfaced around WrestleMania 35 weekend where it was reported that it was a mutual decision.
