Enzo Amore has been trending on Social Media after causing a nuisance on last night's PPV...

According to PWInsider, Enzo Amore was in town for a concert and bought a ringside ticket to the PPV. When Amore was ejected from ringside during The Bar vs. AOP matchup, WWE’s production crew did their best to shoot around the incident.

Apparently, many people working in WWE including the talent were pretty angry about the whole matter. Moreover, a fan was injured during the scuffle. She was taken out via stretcher and was said to be holding her arm in pain during the incident.

Below is a video of the incident posted on Twitter:

As you can see, not only was Enzo a nuisance to the entire evening's proceedings, but he has also been banned by Staples Center from attending future events.

Interestingly, Amore had left promotional flyers in the Staples Center Parking Lot immediately following his ejection, as reported by Ringside News.

Clearly, Enzo Amore is not likely to return to WWE anytime soon. Vince McMahon is reportedly said to take strict measures regarding this situation so that it does not occur once again.

#2: The Usos were not supposed to win their Tag Team Elimination match

As everyone witnessed, The Usos won the Traditional Survivor Series Tag Team Elimination Match for SmackDown Live during the Preshow.

However, we learned later on that this particular win was not officially counted as part of the overall scorecard for RAW vs. SmackDown Live throughout the night.

Technically, the final score should have been 6-1. But due to some communication mishap, the wrong team won this particular bout, and as a result, the official score ended up being 6-0, with RAW scoring a clean sweep over SmackDown Live.

Dave Meltzer discussed this on a recent episode of The Wrestling Observer, where he pointed out the following:

“So here’s the deal, okay? The storyline was supposed to be a clean-sweep for Raw and somewhere in the communications process, don’t ask me why, SmackDown won that tag match so they had to tell everyone that it didn’t count.That was the reason. One hand forgot what the other was doing. Vince wanted a clean-sweep and I don’t know how this happens, so yeah, it didn’t count," he said via Ringside News

#3: Nia Jax & Ronda Rousey faced indirect backlash because of Becky Lynch's insane popularity

Becky Lynch has achieved a status that only a few wrestlers are lucky enough to accomplish. However, the sheer amount of fan frenzy that comes along with this status leads to some indirect repercussions.

For example, during last night's Survivor Series pay-per-view, Nia Jax was faced with a deafening amount of negative backlash after news broke out last week that it was Jax who had accidentally broken Becky Lynch's nose.

Similarly, but to a lesser extent, Ronda Rousey gave an amazing performance last night, however, fans were continuously chanting "Becky" throughout several instances. Even worse, "Thank You Charlotte" chants followed soon after even when WWE showed some gnarly camera shots of Ronda's bruises.

Without any context, the above two incidences might strike off as very confusing, yet quite interesting moments for many casual fans out there.
