Enzo is very strong evidence that the most valuable thing NXT does is convince people who will support Literally Anything Non-WWE to support WWE.

My GF doesn't really follow wrestling but was an Enzo fan when he was in NXT. His shtick was fun when he showed up every few weeks and only did it for a couple minutes. It turned to poo poo when he had to do a 10 minute promo every week.

She was sad but unsurprised that he is a sex pest.

Enzo was a decent heel and tbh it sounds like he was totally innocent of everything other than being a gigantic douche in this case, but WWE have fired all kinds of people who weren't gigantic douches for no reason so it's a really weird hill to die on

He wasn't declared innocent, by the way. The Phoenix PD said they would reopen the investigation if new evidence surfaced. He isn't cleared of suspicion in other words.

Enzo got fired because he put WWE in a weird spot without giving them the headsup first. Not to mention he was already on the bubble for being generally terrible. I can't believe Steph hosed this guy and then thought it would be a good idea to let him wrestle.

Enzo being a creepy rapist pretty much ruined the "daughter of Ric Flair" promo, which I personally liked. :smith:

It's kind of weird how iDubbbz was able to drop a diss track on Enzo two weeks before the suspected rape, though.

So Enzo and his stupid fans are threatening to sue WWE and the accuser. His fans are citing this as why he will succeed:


Note: Connecticut is a fire at will state, and WWE has a morality clause which allows them to fire you for basically any reason.

Say what you will about WWE, but if Enzo sues them, I hope they completely ruin his life. And his chances of suing the accuser went out the window when he made that stupid rap video and also publicly thanked his fans for making her life miserable/stalking/threatening her.

I'll say WWE is run by an accused rapist so I hope he sues them and they both fall off a cliff.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.
I bring this up again, but Enzo potentially raping a lady was not the reason he got fired. It doesn't matter if he wasn't "Officially under investigation" if the Police questioned him regarding his potential involvement in a sexual assault case, guess what, you tell your boss about that. Heath Slater went through the same thing, but he told WWE that he was under investigation and it was happening and he still has a job today.

It isn't a complex situation, Enzo wasn't fired because of evul wammenz, He was fired because he made the WWE look stupid by having an under-investigation for sexual assault guy as their champion. And Enzo didn't tell them NOT because he knew of his innocence, but because he knew his push would be stopped cold until he was cleared.

WWE for once isn't actually in the wrong. Whoever is complaining seems to forget the WWE didn't just fire him on the spot, they suspended him because that's the standard practice, it was THEN after learning that his investigation had been ongoing for months that they fired him. Like... this isn't complex... there's a very clear path and absolutely none of it has to do with anything ridiculous.

It seems to be the same gross combination of MRA rape accusation crusaders and fangirl women who hate other women that exists in every dorky subculture tbh. As long as it fits their narrative it doesn’t matter if the person/character in question is likeable or talented

That's the thing too.

Even in Enzo's version of the story she wasn't really able to consent. He's still a rapist, just the kind the law doesn't go after.

That's WWE telling him to cut the same promo though. The ones he cut on Cass and the ones he did as heel champ were all really different and really good.

The one at Battleground with him, Cass, and Cena vs. The Club was pretty loving incredible. Cena broke character to acknowledge how good it was and the crowd was mental for it. Enzo still sucks though.

To be clear we have like... no idea what actually happened. But her statement was

“He replied, ‘Bitch I have 1 million followers on Instagram…you should be begging for this dick,” she wrote, adding that he then proceeded to restrain her and raped her.
