Enzo's release from the company was his own fault. He was a shitty pro wrestler with an even shittier attitude, but that was being tolerated as he was moving a good amount of merchandise from what I understand. It's one thing to be a pest backstage and another to be a pest that's making decent money for the company. What got him fired wasn't that he was being investigated for sexual assault, which would've been enough in the minds of a lot of people, it was that he honestly thought he'd be able to successfully keep this from the WWE brass and didn't tell them about it. If I remember correctly, Enzo found out on a Friday that an investigation was being launched and company executives found out the following Monday, and not from Enzo. I might be wrong about them not finding out about it from Enzo and that they were just really upset that he waited all that time to let them know; either way, Enzo was being investigated for a serious crime and neglected to tell the bosses right away and that was the straw that broke the camel's back. WWE was backed into a corner as there'd have been a backlash once news got out if they hadn't fired him upon learning of the investigation because, let's face it, just the accusation is enough in the minds of a lot of people these days; I mean...all a woman has to do is point at a man and say "he raped me" and there'll immediately be people ready to string him up without any hesitation, no questions asked.
I didn't even know it had happened until afterward, I'd gotten up to get something to drink and by the time I got back, the whole thing was done. Now, had this been someone like CM Punk or maybe Cody Rhodes, you know, someone that legions of fans don't detest because they actually could/can wrestle competently, therefore having some respect for, then this would be a much bigger story than it is. Enzo was riding the gravy train and it was his own shitty attitude and questionable personal decisions that derailed it for him. What Lio Rush is doing with Lashley on Raw right now? That's the sort of role WWE should've had for Enzo, as some body's hype man, rather than going over insanely athletic in-ring talents like Neville or Kalisto for championships when he himself could barely apply a side headlock.
