Many things happened on Raw last week but one of them particularly caught our attention. We saw an irate Big Cass walking alongside security guards backstage. The two men accompanied him to Enzo Amore, lying prone on the ground.
Enzo had been blindsided and did not see who hit him because while he may be a certified G and a bonafide stud, he doesn't have eyes at the back of his head.

Worry not Enzo, with our powers or deduction, we shall unearth five suspects most likely to have hit you. It won’t be an easy task since Rikishi was nowhere to be seen.
However, let's start with the most likely suspects of them all. Two men who were seen, at the scene of the crime.
#5 Big Cass? Latest WWE Polls Suggest So
Let’s face it... the only certainty about any WWE friendship is that it will end someday. Goldust turned on R-Truth last week, Ciampa turned on Gargano this week, and well, Big Cass could certainly turn on Enzo next week.
While we all refuse to admit it, Enzo is the only superstar stopping Big Cass from becoming a breakout singles performer and prospective future champion as well. Enzo lands himself in trouble, and Big Cass has to get him out of it, quite regularly. In other words, Enzo Amore is too ‘SAWFT’.
There’s a reason Enzo and Cass haven't been tag team champions yet. Enzo’s in-ring skills are seriously lacking. With Enzo out of the picture, Big Cass could become a big time player indeed.
WWE posted this poll on their website, as per the last update (30th May) 59% think Big Cass attacked his Tag-team partner. Just like last week, Big Cass just happens to be the first guy on the scene after his little buddy is found unconscious. And, just like last week, his demands that Angle find the assailant or assailants comes off a little forced.
New this week is the seven footer’s aggressive reaction to Corey Graves insinuating he might be involved in the attacks, and Cass’ insistence it was The Revival in the face of the General Manager’s stating that was impossible.
#4 Apollo Crews/ Titus O’Neil
Enzo and Cass have had their problems with Titus O’Neil and Apollo Crews, of late. Last week on Raw, Big Cass took on Titus O’Neil and defeated him in less than a minute. After that, Enzo tried to click a selfie with Titus, who was lying prone in the middle of the ring but an enziguri from Crews knocked his lights out for good, at that point.
Crews and O’Neil have the motive to beat up Enzo Amore, so that Apollo Crews can develop his character and go full heel eventually.
This would most likely spark off a mid card feud between Crews and Big Cass, for the pre-show of Extreme Rules. Because of the nature of the pay-per-view, if these men were responsible for the attack on Enzo, there would probably be an 'extreme rules’ stipulation in the match as well. The match would be good and could launch either one of these talented men to the next level.
#3 The Club
Enzo and Cass were feuding with The Club as recently as Payback. This prospective feud could be another way to determine the Number 1 Contenders for the Raw Tag Team Titles, through a secondary tag team contest.
After all, with all of the singles competitors in the Fatal 5-Way match, the card will need some filling. Also, blindsiding Enzo seems like just the kind of thing The Club would do. The Club need some steam, and this could catapult Enzo and Big Cass straight into the mix again.
#2 Goldust
The WWE Universe looked on, in shock, as Goldust went heel and turned on his partner R-Truth on Raw last week. This week, he returned to his old school roots (Shattered Dreams Production) and cut a promo proclaiming that he was back in the Director’s Chair once again and that he controlled how and where his film would end.
Could Enzo's attack be a sequence from this film?
Honestly, for anyone to take Goldust seriously as a heel after so many years of doing silly comedy, he needs a better opponent than R-Truth. Enzo and Cass could be the catalysts that get him over. Hey, Goldust will never become Universal Champion, but this could be pretty cool.
#1 The Revival
Did you notice The Revival on Raw this week? No, we swear that they were around. Don’t believe us? Watch the footage for yourself.
There they are sneaking up from behind Sasha Banks during her interview segment. Why are they on Raw, we wonder? Could they be responsible for putting Enzo Amore’s lights out? After all, they are master heels and you quite honestly can't teach that.
The Revival are out for the time being, with Dash Wilder nursing a legitimate injury. This could be their first program upon their return, considering Enzo and Cass had their best match against The Revival at WWE Roadblock, back in 2016. It was only a Network special, but this was the best match on the bill. Can the two teams recreate their magic on the main roster?
