Should Enzo get another shot in WWE? Let us know in the comments below!
No
Yes he should get another chance
Too bad he has sexual allegations
yeah
@@lijovitalis5555 Sexual Allegations not proven to be true
Enzo is the best to interview....you dont even have to ask him any questions and he'll tell you everything you wanted to know😂
Yeah shame it's all bs.
😂😂
And some things you didn't want to know too!
He loves talking about himself for sure.
And you can’t teach that
This guy was never meant to be a wrestler, he was supposed to be a Manager. He could've been the next Paul Heyman on the mic. His wrestling career tanked so badly.
Too much heat
@@metrowater2819because no one realized he shouldn’t be in the ring and should’ve been on the mic. No one even himself realized that. He could make a comeback though if he wanted to as a manager I think, don’t you?
@@092filmz I don't think he sees himself as a manager, that's the main problem here. He was never good in the ring, and he never will be....but his mic skills and just his charisma was through the roof. That alone deserved a bigger platform like WWE but now he's making appearances in front of hundreds of fans, instead of the thousands. He buried himself actually.
Enzo would be a DDP situation minus the size. He'd overshadow any guy he's managing, steal all their heat.
@@Kancerru maybe he’d be good on commentary then. All I know is he’s talented and he’s not being put to his full potential. Did he do something to someone to make him so hated? Or did other wrestlers not like him because he just wasn’t a good wrestler?
Enzo under Paul Heyman's tutelage could be one of the greatest mangers in WWE history. I hope he gets another opportunity with them to shine.
Not after that Surv. Ser. 19’ fiasco. I was backstage when that happened and all of backstage flipped out. His opportunity is over.
That's not an excuse. Why? Because noami and Sasha banks literally just walked out of WWE. Yet Naomi was able to just come back. @@Warchiefdyingheart
@@WarchiefdyingheartWrestling is a business. If it makes money, it’s on the table
@@Warchiefdyingheartyou were backstage where? Lol who are you?
@@WarchiefdyingheartWait what happened?
Met Enzo with my son several times when he was training in Tampa. Awesome guy, spent time with my son took pics and signed auto's. Went out of his way to spend time with the fans. Good people.
Maybe he changed for the better
@@sakispdsw he just needed to be reintroduced to his humility, I think if he was given another chance. HHH could really do something great with him.
@sakispdsw this was in the beginning of his wwe run, before the nonsense came out about him. I think he was always a good dude. He was always great to the kids and fans & that deserves props 👏👍🏻
"If you want me to watch your television product, then put Enzo Amore on the screen." - Kevin Nash
Where He Said That At ?
You know who you just quoted right?
@@cheekybum6136 So Kevin Nash Didn’t Say That 👀
Enzo and Liv both worked at the same Hooters in Paramus NJ. Used to go there all throughout high school and college. Met them a few times before they were signed. Both super cool
that’s crazy
No way fr
LIV AT A HOOTERS?👀👀👀👀
Dont you have to have big tits to work at Hooters ? Liv is kinda ..... flat xD
@@jaco2xfreak
Not suprised he was managing a hooters 😂😭
🤣😂🤣
I absolutely hate watching interviews when the interviewer is constantly talking over or interrupting the person they are speaking with. You did none of that. Gave the man a mic and let him say what he needed to say and you didn't say a single word. Kudos to you. Also, is this the full interview or is there more to come?
Idk why everyone hates on enzo he seems like one of the chillest coolest people you could be friends with
lies a lot in interviews like this
Nobody hates on him
Eric aka Enzo was at DeFranco’s around the same time I was going there. Joe D and I are around the same age and was a big wrestling fan. Erics a good guy, a fun guy to be around. My memories of him - he’s the guy who when you hang out with him, tells you story about something that you witnessed or were apart of and completely changes the story and always has to one up. Other than that annoying trait a good guy.
Enzo had attitude issues backstage to the point where he was kicked out of the tour bus by Roman Reigns. Cass had a drinking problem cuz of his mental health or whatnot, but the icing on the cake was that Big Cass went off script and he hurt a little person on Smackdown.
@@legendkiller1099 "Enzo lies. I know this because discredited dirtsheet writers told me so."
"Thanks for that introduction Enzo. So my first question is...."
Enzo being a manager at Hooters is so on brand. It’s something I never knew about him, yet always knew about him 😂
i can’t understand why they wouldn’t keep enzo and cass . One of the best things they had going at the time
because both of them had issues and needed to grow up.
@@jedimindtrick75Cass did that. Enzo... ugh

@@forgottenson3411 their whole shitck was getting old anyway
Because Enzo was the victim of a false allegation.
This was a great time to be a wrestlng fan in tampa. The fcw / beginning of nxt era. Watched Rollins, Reigns, Ambrose, Flair, Paige, Zayn, Wyatt and so so many more develop their wwe personas. Awesome. Steve Keirns family ran a great operation.
I'l never understand how this guy hasn't made his way back onto TV. He's so entertaining.
Love or hate the guy, but Enzo was 🔥 on mic. One of the best new talkers to come into wrestling in the last 10 years. He's not a worker or a high flyer, but he has "It" and he was different. And you need that
It's amazing what he accomplish in a short amount of time without any wrestling experience. Enzo is money in the Mic.
Enzo should be on TV I'm sorry but he had all my non wrestling fan friends in their late 20s early 30s fanboying over him. The dude was over.
I'd still love to see Enzo and Cass again. I loved them and the one thing that WWE really lacks right now is a great tag team.
Summer 2016 they were so fucking over. Ik he burnt some bridges, but damn his stick work was elite. I got the gift of gab, and the gift to jab; and I'll put that lazy eye back to work!
Great solo podcast from Enzo.
Say what you want but during the period they were about, they were so over. Was at a Raw one time with a friend during a period when I wasnt really watching WWE and couldnt believe the reaction they got, was mental.
Yeah, that's why the roster hated him. Because Enzo was an actual star, and the "top guys" were all boring "muh 5 star match" wrestlers who couldn't match Enzo's personality and charisma.
@@thehmcyeah and no wrestling ability you could tell every time he was in the ring. There has been countless superstars saying he was a problem and look what happened.
I could listen to enzo telling stories for hours, omg
Enzo's run as the cruiserweight champion is seriously underrated.
This is how CM Punk would look like if he was a NewYorker
New Yorkers are annoying
A 60 inch vertical is a crazy statement…..I like Enzo but that’s cap….
Big 🧢
A white guy has the record for high jump now. Cope harder
@@annna6553 what does race have to fucking do with anything?
Love Enzo and ALOT of people did would love to see him back again
This man is Fire on the Mic has mad Charisma
If Enzo had a 60 inch vertical. He'd be in the NBA.... Vince Carter himself topped out at a 46 inch vertical.
Facts
No he wouldn't. It doesn't fit the juew narrative
Ughh.. I’m so glad this channel exists. Awesome story.
I miss this team so much
"and then everyone clapped"
Enzo: NO BUT FOR REAL THO
Love this story how he got his break im WWE. Perfect example how you can create an opportunity out of nothing by just being at the right place at the right time.
I honestly dug Cass & Enzo! I think Enzo deserves another go in the new Levesque Era!
The way he describes Charlotte tells you more than enough about the person he is
Enzo is one of the best smack talkers I have seen in this modern era, I remember him just roasting the whole cruiserweight roster around the ring
Man I miss Enzo being in the wwe he was the only thing that kept me watching back then
Enzo is the that co-worker that keeps talking and telling you they do all these outrageous things and know celebrities and have connections and the whole time you’re just like “Yeah that’s what’s up bro” 🙄
Im not familiar with him until now, and wish I'd never clicked. Guy loves to hear himself talk, a legend in his own mind. He's insufferable.
Yup!!
He is the guy you bump into, that you and your buddies try to ditch.
Enzo is literally interviewing himself.... "How did I go with Big-Cass? Actually.... "
Can't lie the respect for him just went up so much
Sounds like a guy who wants back in WWE and i say, why not? "Talk them into the building" is what it's all about and he can do that.
Need to bring him back
Cena was basically running the show back then.
Now he's doing dick musical covers in Holywood hahaha
Bruh, I need a Enzo return.
He’s more AEW size. 175
I'm surprised he hasn't been signed by aew yet. Could you imagine him and mjf going back n forth on the mic 😅
@@Iamlegend0824Tony would be cowering in the back if Enzo was running around
@@Iamlegend0824 good point
Yea guy would be a great manager
As a fan of pro wrestling all my life enzo is in the top 5 on the mic to ever do it. his size isnt great but you cannot teach what enzo is capable of on a mic he captivates audiences time after time and the only reason he got heat was because he was saying things that are now common place he was simply a few years before his time. The best thing to do now would be to have cass come back as a mute wrecking machine with enzo basically being his Heyman but with a little more interference and spots here and there. Its all there. Heyman has tribal chief well enzo has a 7 foot tall and you cant teach that beast lol id love to see enzo come back
The Dusty Rhodes impression and clothes list was hilarious
Enzo was really entertaining
I like how the other guy isn't taking time away from Enzo and just letting him say what he has to say
Enzo is just too good. If he came back to NXT, and then Big Cass soon after....maaaaaaaann!!!
This dude had liv Morgan don't forget it
Okay?
Somebody give this man a podcast
4:58 nailed it
It's so sad when you see someone who thinks so much of themselves outside of their reality. It's like damn, how do we tell him, yknow?
Lol. You're still mad because Enzo has more personality than all the crappy flippy dippy jabronis you like.
I was that little kid pointing to the Big Show in the airport, going "Who's that?" Except that it was Batista. And I was 40 years old,
Now would be a great time for them both to come back to WWE
Must respect to you Enzo
One of the most genuine wrestlers I’ve gotten the chance to meet, he gave me tons of advice at wrestlecon last year, wish him nothing but the best 💯
Howard Finkel made matches sound very, very important.
Enzo and Cass were VERY popular at one point.
I wouldn’t be mad if Enzo returned
I’d like to see Damian Mizdow and Sandow back in the WWE
Seen Big Cass in my local gym before the house show that always happened every year. Nice guy got a picture with him but when I woke up the next morning he got fired from wwe and all the crazy antics with Enzo came out and I was like I just got a picture with that guy 😂
miss this dude
MY NAME IS ENZO AMORE!
I lose track of time every time I listen to this guy. Awesome!
Humble ahh dude right here 💯
Enzo we missed you in the wwe
This man needs to be brought back to the WWE. He's currently feuding with "Shogun" Tony Gun on OVW. But bring him back and give him a manager role to an up and coming wrestler, it might be a hit.
A legend in his mind only 😂
Him and the rock would be amazing
Even if he didn't make the most of a second shot as an in ring competitor, odds are hed be great as a nxt gm instead of ava. Imagine him in the pow wows with pierce and aldis or in general adding a lot of energy that could radiate. Funnily if anyone knows how arrogant and shitty someone can be in their first run its hbk who better to guide him? With or without a big guy attached he always had talent none of us can deny that; hes a tip tier mouthpiece for anything you attach him to.
I'd love to see Enzo and Big Bill back
Enzo is such a character 😅
Seen Enzo in a few interviews and even though he’s entertaining there is a feeling that he’s exaggerating the truth 😂
I know Enzo rubbed everyone up the wrong way, but I LOVED his wrestling ability and talk. Would love to see him back tbh.
I don't know man, HHH was the one who fired him. I don't know if he would call Enzo back. I wish he would but that's a dreamy thing.
I miss enzo
He went to Salisbury University, I played against them, and worked out in that gym was good wasn't the best
I guess he's the unnamed wrestler who managed a Hooters Liv was referring to during her interview with CVV.
If his games clear let him slide back hate him or love him he’s entertaining
Incredibly good on the stick, even with his tall tales in this interview. Frankly astonishing how he managed to got catchphrases over so quickly with all of the audiences. Pound for pound, one of the greatest talkers from the small sample size we have of his time in WWE. I loved listening to him talk. It's so unfortunate he was completely forgettable in - ring. What might have been....
More nzo now please 🙏
Enzos super cool i heard him on another podcast and dmed him to do some work with him in media and he provided me an opportunity. Awesome genuine guy
On the surface, Enzo seems like a likeable dude who’s a really good storyteller and can talk really well for himself. But you can tell pretty easily that most of the stuff he says either didn’t happen or is being hyperbolic about the details to make it seem like his story is crazier than it is
Shoot? He praised Cena
Enzo is so animated when he is speaking and he is not that bad of a wrestler and performer he should get another shot in the WWE
Only the legends of wrestling gets movies made of them , he was never there long enough
Really like Enzo but when you hear him talk he sounds like a 25year vet.
You can tell he's desperate for a job somewhere making good money again.
He was good
I remember I had stopped watching wrestling around 2012 and one day I came across my dad watching raw in I think 2015 or 2016 and the first thing I came across was Enzo cutting a promo with Big Cass and was immediately a fan of them
Somebody give a podcast mic
Legit thought Enzo was Solo Sikoa for a second
they sound nothing alike
@@Evan-dm3si I’m talking about his looks in the video preview, dude lol.
He reminds me of bugs bunny for some reason
@@williamferraro6581 Looks nothing like him lmao
Enzo needs to come back
This guy was entertaining but I feel like they probably gave him too much microphone too early. Or maybe it was just too often. His character was great though.
Out of all people tony didn't hire him. Hope HHH brings him back. I think they hate he knows how good he is. When you got the gab moves Dont matter THAT much
Dunno why this pops up in my feed, seems to have alot of opinions on wwe, but ive meber heard of this guy.
The fact that he was a white DB is what told him he wasn't going to the NFL??
It wasn't the fact that he played at Salisbury University...a Division III college football team that gets absolutely no attention from NFL scouts?
Can you imagine him and LA Knight collaborating for solid piece of entertainment?
I would prefer him and CM Punk collaborating. How you doin'; how you doin'.
