Nunzio was with WWE for several years, and he recently revealed his favorite moment from his career there. The former Cruiserweight Champion was asked the question during his appearance on Insight With Chris Van Vliet and named his participation in the Cruiserweight Open from WrestleMania 20.
Nunzio also spoke about how he worked in the company as a smaller talent akin to a Spike Dudley-type role. You can see the highlights below:
On His Favorite Moment From His WWE Career:
“I would say WrestleMania 20. I mean, I was able to perform in WrestleMania 20. My father used to, so going back a little bit when I was 10, 11, 12 years old, my dad, at the time, they used to do the Garden every month. It used to be televised every other month, so it was a house show, a televised house show. In the beginning, my dad used to take me to all the non-televised ones because we used to have MSG channels, so I could watch those from home. So my father was taking me to Madison Square Garden all time, and he brought me to the first WrestleMania, which I know Tommy Dreamer was there. So my father brought me to WrestleMania One, and then who ever knew I would perform 20 years later. Now I wrestled in the Garden a bunch of times before WrestleMania 20 because I was with WWE already and we did shows there, TVs and stuff. But just because it’s WrestleMania, so I would say that was like the biggest highlight. And then my mother and father came, of course, my mother never used to come when my father used to bring me when I was a kid. But that was a big thing.”
On Being a Small Guy In WWE:
“Well I never complained. I worked with Chris Benoit many times. I worked with Eddie Guerrero. I worked with all those guys that were actually going for titles, but in tag matches too, because it was Eddie and Chavo versus me and Johnny, or me and Chuck, or Chuck and Johnny. So it was all like there were so many different combinations they could have used with us.”
