...the cash Enzo Amore had as he delighted a dynamic NXT TakeOver: London crowd, as well as amount of fat hanging from a lean and mean feud with then-tag team champions The Revival.
Enzo, Cass and Carmella were one of the hottest acts in the entire industry when they finally got their shot at Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson (themselves on a transcendent trajectory), with the smoke-and-mirror matches working wonders for the credibility of the East Coast irritants underneath the laser focused efficiency of the Champions.
The December 2015 TakeOver clash and Network-exclusive WWE Roadblock rematch the following February were both spectacular - the last matches before The Revival reinvented doubles action with American Alpha but the first moments at which it became clear a real new day was dawning beyond the domineering jocularity of Kofi Kingston, Big E and Xavier Woods on the main roster.
