In a recent interview with Slam! Sports, Kaval had the following to say about having Michelle McCool and Layla as his pro’s on NXT:

While on NXT, Silvestry was mentored by Michelle McCool and Layla, this outraged a lot of fans who followed his career, seeing this as a move by WWE to disrespect the former Ring of Honor Heavyweight Champion. Silvestry, on the other hand actually enjoyed having the team of LayCool as his mentors.

“A lot of people took exception to it, I guess ,because how over the top their personalities are, but I didn’t think anything of it. Again I saw it as a challenge, how I was going to adapt to this situation, how I was going to make the best of it.

“I got along great with those two women. The biggest effect they had on me was relaxing me, up until that point I had been more of a fighter, more sports orientated less entertainment based,” he said. “I think that because their personalities were so over the top it actually relaxed me and they had me laughing a whole bunch, during the entire time we worked together.”
