For years Enzo Amore and Big Cass were one of the most popular tag teams in NXT, and they got a great response from the fans when they were called up to the main roster.
But eventually WWE decided to break the team up by turning Big Cass heel, and it looks like their feud ended up creating some real life drama between Cass and Enzo.
Enzo Amore recently opened up about their heat during an appearance on the Store Horsemen podcast, and he confirmed that he and Big Cass haven’t talked since their infamous street fight in Brooklyn.
During the match Big Cass tore his ACL, and Enzo indicated that he was unhappy with Cass because he wasn’t able to work through the injury.
“I’m in the ring [in] Brooklyn, the payoff is I get this f–kin chair in my hands,” Enzo said via Wrestling Inc. “You tear your ACL in our business. I mean, Triple H tore his quad and sat in a Sharpshooter. Stone Cold took a piledriver and was paralyzed in the ugliest school boy in the history of the f–king business. I’ve been picked and thrown down the ramp, have a sciatic issue from f–king sensitivity class from prison… I let you pick me up and throw me over your head and throw me out of the f–kin ring. I made you look like the biggest beast there ever was because I was more invested in you as a human and a wrestler and doing business with you in the future than anyone else, right? We can make money down the line for 10, 20 years in that business. And in the moment when I pick up a f–kin chair in Brooklyn, and they’re going apes–t f–kin buck wild, you were all out of the ring and quit on live f–kin TV in the most awkward moment ever.”
“And we to the backstage bro, and you know people talk. You know how the business is. If I’m Vince McMahon, and I gonna invest — look, you have WrestleMania, main event. We expect you to go out there [and have a] half hour, 45-minute match. You tear your ACL in the first five minutes. They have to know you’re gonna stick it out. That’s the business we’re f–kin in. And in that moment, I like, and it was immature at the time, but not really, because it was the first time in my life in wrestling where I ever went, ‘bro. I can’t forgive you for this.’ Like, I’ve let people kill me for the past five years. I’ve taken the heat in every one of our matches, every f–kin bump. And I get this chair in my hand, and you’re standing up, and you can’t take a chair shot? We’re pros, dude. This is what we f–kin do. You catch the chair on the fly, and DDT me on it. Match over. Whatever we have to do as pros in the moment to finish the match. That was where I stood, and we haven’t talked since.”
