WWE NXT's Wren Sinclair Explains How Enzo Amore Inspired Her To Get Into Wrestling
"WWE NXT" star Wren Sinclair signed with the company and joined the WWE Performance Center in December 2023, after a successful few years on the independent scene. The star grew up watching professional wrestling, but as many fans do, fell out of it for a time as she grew up. On an episode of the "No-Contest Wrestling Podcast," Sinclair explained how one former "NXT" star brought her back into the fold when she and her brother attended a live event in Austin, Texas.
"I hadn't really seen many of these people and this was the first time I'd heard of 'NXT,'" Sinclair explained. "I just remembered, I think it was a triple threat. Enzo Amore and Big Cass came out and I had no idea who they were. But, as soon as he started talking, 'My name is Enzo Amore,' the whole place just started saying every single word with him. I was like, 'Oh my gosh. This is power.' Like, I need that. That really kind of brought me back. I was like, 'How do I do this?"
Amore debuted on "NXT" television in May 2013, and aligned himself with Big Cass in the months that followed. The pair competed on the brand, winning fans over with their catchphrases that Amore would shout on their way to the ring, until they were called up to the main roster in April 2016 following WrestleMania 32. While Cass has since re-signed with WWE after some time away, including a stint in AEW, Amore has yet to return following his January 2018 release, despite rumors the pair would reunite.
