nZo Argued With Vince McMahon Over A Scripted Promo He Refused To Cut At WWE Great Balls Of Fire

nZo was never shy at voicing his opinion backstage, even to Vince McMahon.

Major League Wrestling star nZo recently spoke with Liam Alexander-Stewart of Inside The Ropes to discuss a wide variety of subjects. During the interview, nZo spoke about a “sh*tty promo” that Vince McMahon wanted him to say at the 2017 Great Balls of Fire event that he refused to say, noting he fought with McMahon until he got the go ahead to do his own vision.

“Me vs. Big Cass at Great Balls of Fire. The entire timeline [of our feud] lined up with that song [That’s Life by Frank Sinatra]. Riding high in April, shot down in May,” nZo said. “But I know I’m going to change that tune when I’m back on top, back on top of June and if nothing’s working comes this year, July, I’m going to roll myself up in a big ball and die. It’s like me and Cass break up. We’re riding high in April in WrestleMania, shot down in May. I’m found backstage, but I know I’m going to change that tune when I’m back on top of a big show in June. Listen, July, you know me and Cass wrestling Great Balls of Fire.

“So that’s what I used in the promo and I had to fight tooth and nail with Vince McMahon, who handed me the sh*tty promo. This writer handed me a sh*tty promo. I marched into Vince’s office at Great Balls of Fire and I said, I ain’t f*cking saying this. This is what I want to f*cking say. This is what I want to f*cking say. He didn’t like it. He didn’t want to do it. I fought again. I fought again. And Vince said, okay. And I went out there and I delivered what I believe to be one of my best promos ever.”

While nZo is currently making waves in Major League Wrestling, a lot of fans have speculated about a return to WWE for the team of Enzo and Cass. That is something that nZo isn’t sure he’d be on board for at this stage of his life.

“Oh, man, it’s funny, man. You know, I’m really happy and looking at where my life is and where my career has went and every wrestling signing that I go to, you know, I get great fans that I owe the world to. So, I’m in a good place right now,” nZo said. “I think Cass is in a great place right now, and I don’t know if I’d be eager to enter a go f*ck yourself environment. So, you know, like you got to be ready to do that and if the opportunity called, like would I field the phone call like. I don’t even know.”

nZo’s WWE Great Balls Of Fire promo can be seen in full on Peacock/WWE Network; the promo starts near the 30:00 mark of the event.
