Enzo Amore On Why WWE Split Up His Tag Team With Big Cass

It’s been a while since fans have seen Big Cass or Enzo Amore in a WWE ring, as they were both released from their contracts last year, but they’re still making noise on social media.

There’s no denying that when Enzo Amore and Big Cass were together as a tag team in WWE they were one of the company’s most popular acts, but eventually WWE decided to split them up.

Enzo recently opened about his run with Big Cass on Keepin It 100 with Konnan, and he shared his thoughts on why WWE broke them up.

“If you think about it, me and Big Cass at one point were the No. 1 merchandise selling people in the company. In the height of our run we were split up in the No. 1 ratings draw in the company. If you had kept me and Cass together, or given us the tag titles, or given one of us a push towards the title and the other one pushed towards the title, there was some major super-star potential there, which was a scary thought to those in the higher-ups, or they creatively had a different take.”

He went on to say that his popularity when he joined the main roster, and politics caused issues for him in WWE.

“When I debuted in an arena on television and everyone in the arena introduced me and Cass, from there on up I never went down. I peaked and went out with a title on my waist. So, from the NXT days I was charismatic and over the top with a character, but was very approachable at a mall, or in a store; I never said no to a picture, and the love for me was different than with some other people. So, when I did things, I embraced all of that and I never let, as I make light on a character phrase, I never let a cup of haters dictate my life because I never had to politic.”
