10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About Lana

3. Her Manipulative Segments With Enzo Amore

Despite being one of the most over characters of the past few years, Enzo Amore has all but been deleted from recent WWE history due to controversial allegations of sexual assault earlier this year. Those allegations, during which a woman accused Enzo of raping her in a hotel room in October 2017, caught WWE cold after their employee failed to inform them of the investigation. Enzo lost his job, but was later cleared of all charges.

Still, Amore's name is now mud on WWE TV, so the company probably would prefer if we forget the time he was filmed getting cosy with Lana in a hotel room scene in late-2016.

The story had Enzo being manipulated by Lana and Rusev into a vicious beatdown for even thinking he had a chance with the blonde. In typically cheesy pro wrestling fashion, Enzo acted like a nervous wreck around Lana as she invited him to strip off and get comfortable.

Then, Rusev appeared out of nowhere and battered the babyface for hitting on his woman. The circumstances of Enzo's release make this angle particularly uncomfortable for WWE execs today.
