Ace Steel had a run as a coach at the WWE Performance Center, and he recently looked back on that period. Steel spoke about his time at the PC on Developmentally Speaking, and you can see some highlights below (per Wrestling Inc):

On his time at the PC: “I loved working at the Performance Center. I love coaching more than I love wrestling … I love it because I get to hand everything that I’ve got — every little trick of the trade — to someone and hope that it works out for them. It might not always work out.”

On being able to work with the coaches there: “I got to work with the top coaches in the world. Never in my wildest dreams would I think I’d be working with Robbie Brookside, one of the best British wrestlers ever, or Norman Smiley, another phenomenal wrestler, and that eventually turned into working with Terry Taylor, Fit Finlay, Steve Corino.”

On producing as well as coaching: “I love the fact that [I can be] training with someone for how many ever weeks and [take what we worked on] and put that in the match.”
