Enzo Amore

Enzo Amore is a unique case, as he didn't resurface for a long time after his WWE release and revealed his new name around a year after he was let go by WWE. His stint in WWE lasted for around six years. He wasn't a technical genius when it came to in-ring action, but he made up for it with his gift of gab.

Amore was incredibly entertaining on the mic, and his "How you doin'?" catchphrase soon became quite popular among the WWE Universe.

He was released by WWE in early 2018 amidst some serious allegations. The charges were later dropped due to insufficient evidence against him. Amore returned to action more than a year later and revealed 'nZo' as his new in-ring name.

He made his debut for Northeast Wrestling in June 2019, accompanying his former WWE Tag Team partner Big Cass, who competed in singles action against Jon Moxley. Enzo made his in-ring return at the Prison Break event a few weeks later, defeating Brian Pillman Jr. in the process.
