A new name was reportedly working backstage in a trial role at AEW Dynamite last night.

According to a report from PWInsider, the former Scotty 2 Hotty (Scott Garland) has been given a tryout as a producer/agent for the company. He worked last night's AEW Dynamite in the role.

PWInsider is also reporting that Chris Hero, who began working backstage for AEW on a trial basis last month, has been hired full-time. He is said to have received high marks for his work. Hero's first day backstage with AEW was at the debut edition of AEW Collision in Chicago on June 17.

Garland was a member of the NXT coaching staff from 2016 until he requested his release from the company in late 2021. Following his departure, he returned to the ring for the first time in over five years at a GCW show on New Year's Day 2022. He has kept an active schedule wrestling for promotions such as Smash, ICW, WrestlePro, and OVW since.

All sounds good to me. Scotty comes off like a real chill, professional dude. Seems like all the folks who came through NXT during his time there have good relationships with him.

Two good pick ups imo.

Scotty was essential in a lot of guy’s growth in NXT and I will never bash Hero

Were any of them responsible for that garbage Taya Valkyrie/Shitt Baker match?
