Enzo Amore channelled The Rock at his peak during a world class takedown of the entire 'Snoozerweight' Division as he continued his verbal deconstruction of the 205-and-under crew.

For the second week in a row, the 'Smacktalker Skywalker' stole the latter section of the show utilising his biggest strength before his in-ring weakness was again exploited by a returning Kalisto.

Fleshing out the 'No Contact Clause' angle that had effectively granted him championship immunity amongst his contemporaries, Enzo tore strips off of his rivals as they surrounded the ring unable to strike back physically or verbally.

It was an assured and inspired display from the New Jersey heatseeker as he continues to fabulously parlay company bullying into one of the singles success stories of 2017.

Most notably though, he held his fire from one of the many feckless fools that literally couldn't touch him.

As evidenced by Enzo's world class takedown of a snarky Corey Graves tweet yesterday, Amore keeps tabs on the socials. Neither deaf nor blind to the hatred he receives, he also pleasingly catches the praise too. So to Akira Tozawa then, who last week simply tweeted:

Enzo likes you too, Akira.
