“8 years ago today, I lost my dream job @wwe,” nZo captioned his post with.
The video appears to be professionally produced and features interviews with his sister, Big Bill and others.
nZo says in the video, “When I first got signed, Dusty Rhodes said to me ‘You can be good, you can be bad, or you can be different. And you are different.'”
Big Bill says in the video, “He’s a one of one on planet Earth. 8 billion people and there is one Enzo.”
Currently, nZo is the Flyweight Champion for WestSide Gunn’s promotion, 4th Rope Wrestling. He appeared on TNA programming last year promoting the company. nZo is also active on the independents, having wrestled with promotions such as ACW in New York, The Good Brothers’ Lariato Pro, and Coastal Championship Wrestling in Florida recently.
