Enzo Amore Knocked Out At Indie Event
Ex-WWE wrestler nZo got KO'd after taking a nasty DDT bump this past weekend.
Former WWE wrestler Enzo Amore was knocked out at an independent show this weekend.
As reported on Wrestling Observer Radio, the former Cruiserweight Champion, now competing as nZo, was wrestling Ivan Warsaw for the Texas-based Southwest Wrestling Entertainment. The 34-year-old was left unconscious after taking a DDT to the floor.
There's currently no word on nZo's condition, with neither the wrestler nor the promotion providing a substantial update. The former Realest Guy in the Room has, however, hit Twitter to thank his followers:-
Thanks everybody

Per the Observer, nZo was taken to a local hospital after the bump, leaving the building on a stretcher.
nZo has only kept a sporadic wrestling schedule since leaving WWE in January 2018. The SWE bout was his second of 2021 so far, with the former Amore also working a gauntlet bout for Doc Gallows' Georgia-based Lariato Pro group in February, which he won.
Let go from WWE for allegedly failing to disclose sexual assault allegations in January 2018, nZo showed up alongside former tag partner Big Cass at the co-promoted ROH/NJPW G1 Supercard event the following April, but didn't sign with either group after a heated worked shoot angle.
