Since his release from WWE, former Cruiserweight Champion Enzo Amore has maintained his stance on not knowing that he was being investigated for rape back in October 2017. Amore (who now goes under the rap name Real1) states that he learned of the investigation when his accuser went public with the allegations.
Pro Wrestling Sheet has obtained the full police investigation report from the Phoenix Police Department, and the documents appear to confirm Enzo’s claim that he was not contacted by police regarding the investigation. Documents reveal that police began working on the case on October 23, 2017, and prior to Enzo’s accuser, Philomena Sheahan, going public with her claims on social media, Enzo was not contacted by police.
“After the victim public disclosed the active investigation, the suspect [redacted]now had knowledge of the investigation and all contact was directly to his attorneys,” explains the police report.
The report adds that a forensic exam, which was taken four days after the incident, did not show the presence of any male DNA on the alleged victim.
It was reported for months before Amore’s release that he had huge backstage heat with company officials and most likely, this story was WWE’s way of finally getting rid of Enzo (which is pure speculation on my part).
