WWE Plans Redemption Story for Returning Wrestler Big Cass

WWE aired a new vignette on the July 20, 2026 episode of Monday Night RAW that revisits the 2018 release of wrestler Big Cass (Colin Cassady). The segment highlights his rise through WWE’s developmental system, his tag‑team success with Enzo Amore—including the 2015 NXT Tag Team of the Year award—and his subsequent setbacks: injuries, backstage reliability concerns, and personal struggles with alcohol and mental health that led to his dismissal.

The video frames Cass’s return as a redemption narrative rather than mere nostalgia, ending with the date “8/3” to signal a planned comeback on the August 3 RAW episode, the night after SummerSlam. No comment was made about a potential reunion with former partner Enzo Amore. The storyline aims to present Cass as a babyface character who has overcome significant personal and professional challenges.

Both articles note Cass’s initial signing with WWE in 2011, his main‑roster debut in 2016, the 2017 split with Enzo, a torn ACL later that year, a brief SmackDown stint in 2018, and his eventual release in June 2018.
