Prior to Enzo Amore being released by WWE, he was in the middle of what seemed to be a romantic storyline involving Nia Jax. There were several backstage segments between the two and WWE was clearly teasing something.
Enzo Amore was recently a guest on the Store Horsemen podcast where he spoke about the plans for this storyline that never came to be. It turns out that there was a big swerve planned at the end.
Here is what Enzo said on the podcast (h/t to Wrestling INC for the quote below):
“I was getting so much heat it was awesome that people probably won’t appreciate it until five, ten years from now. Like a babyface transition that I made and on a marketing level too it was crazy and Vince wanted me in that grey area though. He didn’t want me full-blown. He had plans to make me full-blown that nobody else knew about, not even the other people that were involved in it.”
“I mean look at that Nia / Alexa Bliss WrestleMania blow-off. What do you think was gonna happen? How else could I get full-blown heat? Enzo Amore with the grey area trying to get full-blown heel real, real f–king heat. How do you do that? I’m using Nia as a heater to keep my title and I get caught hooking up with her best friend backstage. Bang, that’s how you do it. Nia didn’t know that. Alexa didn’t know it. I knew that because Vince told me […] I was just toying along with her I wanted her to win me matches, I wanted her to be like Chyna.”
Speaking of Enzo, here is what He Tweeted after Big Cass’ release from WWE.
