On the latest episode of Something To Wrestle With, JBL talked about the reports of WWE being interested in reuniting Enzo Amore and Big Cass, the day in 2018 that WWE fired Enzo Amore after the 2018 sexual assault investigation against Amore, which was closed by the Phoenix Police Department with no charges filed. You can check out some highlights below:

On the possibility and his memories of them:

“I think it’d be great. I was there when Enzo came in, and I saw him get over. Guy could talk, I mean, the guy has just an innate charisma about him, and he got over, he got over really well, you know. Cass did as well.”

On being backstage the day Amore was fired:

“I was there also the day he got fired. I was sitting there in a backstage skit, me and Ron were doing a reunion there at either Raw or SmackDown, one of the two, and Dave Kapoor came in, I believe it was Dave came and says, ‘Hey, Vince needs to see you,’ and the way he said it, I thought, ‘That guy, he’s not coming back, he’s fired.’ And I looked at Ron, Ron goes, ‘He’s not coming back,’ and I said, ‘No, he’s not.’ And sure enough, that’s when they pulled him in and let him go, because of the allegations that all turned out to be false, by the way, but they let him go, but didn’t bring him back after that. I was really surprised they didn’t after the allegations turned out to be false, but I think it’s a great time for Enzo.”
