On Raw this week, Big Cass took on Enzo in a match that likely would have ended that feud. And it seemed like this was a match for Cass to win. But he suffered a nasty fall that led to a leg injury. He tried to continue the match and finish off Enzo, but his leg gave out. The ref had to call off the match and give Enzo the win.
What does this mean for Big Cass? I had said this guy reminds me of Edge. Injuries were a theme for Edge, although it did not stop the WWE from giving him an amazing career in terms of titles and accolades. Big Cass has hardly gotten anywhere. And the WWE seems very interested these days to push new talent, so it would not be surprising if the WWE just moved on and someone else just got the spot Cass will lose out on. He doesn't really look like someone that genuinely broke out. He might have been a solid midcarder, but the WWE has a lot of guys to push, especially in the midcard.
And Enzo? This is a good example of circumstances impacting someone. The majority of decisions are predetermined. But little things might happen now and then that just influence the story. Enzo probably should have been destroyed in that match to let Cass look strong. Instead, the story is that Enzo outlasted his former friend. He's still standing. Cass is not. He actually won the feud. That is probably not what the WWE had in mind at all.
Enzo is taking that momentum to 205 Live. Is it a demotion? To get him out of the hair of people on Raw? I have heard that, but it really makes no sense. The cruiserweights also wrestle on Raw. They travel to Smackdown. Moreover, he looks to be starting a feud with Neville, who regained the Cruiserweight Championship. He likely would have floundered on Raw or Smackdown by himself. Maybe they will use him in an entertaining way on 205 Live, while still keeping him available for Raw. Right now, he certainly does not look like someone being punished. Getting a legitimate feud is better than some guys that are really not doing anything right now.
