2. Enzo Amore Is A Narcissist

"Real1" really made a t*t of himself on Steve Austin's podcast this week, which explored his acrimonious departure from WWE.

He was set to be the focal thread of RAW25, before he was suspended, at which he was set to lose his Cruiserweight Championship to Ted DiBiase. DiBiase is far from the only man laughing at Enzo now. His motormouth is scattering so much b*llocks since his imposed silence. It's no wonder Triple H told him that "There's no getting through to you".

And what does the guy know about threads? He rocked up to RAW25 wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with the words "This Is The Best Day Of My Life".

Enzo Amore fancies himself - the sentence could end there - as a "renaissance man" akin to Childish Gambino and Jared Leto, the key difference being that a polymath by definition is actually good at more than one thing. Enzo's poor in-ring timing extends to both his hip hop meter and his ability to disclose pending accusations. He talked himself out of a work on the podcast, reversing his claim that he notified WWE of the allegations hovering above him "immediately". He's now saying he heard rumblings in December that were waved away by his lawyer. Ironically, most young children are taught to tell the time at about 8 years old. Enzo also claimed that he is set to be "one of the biggest stars in music". He is "literally" going to "set the world on fire". To do that, he need only tip over the dumpster in which he finds himself.

It's clearer now than it even was before that the man suffers from Narcissistic Personality Disorder - and you can't. Unlearn. That without hitting absolute rock bottom. Only when the approval-courting narcissist is met with zero approval can they even begin to realise the gravity of their disorder.

Give it a couple of weeks, then.
