Enzo and Big Cass were involved in a segment with Jon Moxley at a previous NEW Show held earlier this summer as well.

“August 16th, it’ll mark 572 days since the last time I stepped foot in a wrestling ring,” Enzo says in the video. “Coincidentally, it’ll be at the Mid-Hudson Civic Center, the same location as my last wrestling match I had which was the main event marquee headline of the first and only ever 205 Live cruiserweight tour.”

Enzo also visited John Hoague-Rivette, a young boy battling brain cancer, in hospital recently. His visit was help coordinated by the World of Hurt wrestling promotion.

“John has been looking forward to it all day, he had all of his Enzo merch lined out,” said Kelly Slingerland, co-owner of World of Hurt. “It means everything to me to make somebody happy and put a smile on somebody’s face.”
