      Theres a big difference, MJF is only in character when the camera is rolling and apparently occasionally when a fan approachs him. Enzo apparently(from what we all heard) never turned it off, its one thing to try to annoy or piss off the fans like MJF does but going around pissing off and annoying your co workers probably isnt going to help your career.

He can say & his fans can say he was wrongfully let go & it was only because he didn't let management know about the charges. Which I agree to an extent because theres others like pat Patterson,jerry Lawler etc... that been thru similar situation but they were still employed which is messed up but reason he wasnt is he didnt do himself any favors by acting a fool both in the locker room on your buses etc... but trying to take over a WWE show.
