For a few years Enzo Amore was one of the most over Superstars in WWE as he was always giving people something to talk about. Enzo spent a great deal of time working in a tag team with Big Cass, but after they split he was eventually moved to the cruiserweight division.
The decision to make Enzo Amore the face of the cruiserweight division wasn’t exactly well received by everyone, but former WWE Superstar Ariya Daivari explained to Wrestling Inc. that the decision was made because Vince McMahon “really, really liked” Enzo Amore.
“At first, everyone was like, ‘He’s not a cruiserweight-type wrestler’ and wondered if it will work out. But, at the end of the day, Vince McMahon really, really liked Enzo despite what people say about him, or his attitude. Vince likes characters and promos, and Enzo was both of those.
“Vince was always going to make time for Enzo. Because we got to work with Enzo, we were allowed to close out Raw a few times and that was cool. Say what you want about him, the guy brought star power to 205 Live, and working with him was cool. When management cares about someone, it creates opportunities for others.
“He wasn’t selfish or anything, he was always coming up with ideas. He’s just a brash and in-your-face kind of guy, and that rubs people the wrong way sometimes. But I always got along with him.”
