Enzo Amore claimed that following his debut, he got an ovation from the locker room, explaining why his peers felt the need to cheer him on.

"John Cena was backstage. When I came out, all the boys stood up to clap for me 'cause I debuted, they were standing up to put me over," said Amore. "All the boys knew that I show up to work at 5 a.m. every day and I get kicked out of the building and I've never had a match and I'm getting this debut spot. So, the boys, in like a moment of like f**k you to the system, stood up, like, almost like a f**k you to the coach at the time, 'cause he didn't want me to wrestle. He never gave me a match."

Amore revealed that the coach in question was Bill DeMott, who later resigned from his coaching position in WWE. Despite the tough time he had under DeMott, the former WWE star says he holds no grudges against him as he believes that the hardship he faced made him the person he is today.

"I have nothing but good things to say about the hell I went through under Bill DeMott because it made me the man I am. I don't complain about that sh*t. So it should be tough. It should always be tough if you want to make it to the top," declared Amore.

Enzo was eventually called up to the main roster in 2016 but was let go by the promotion two years later.
