The Bad Boy and the Real 1 go at it.
Enzo Amore took to Twitter Tuesday night to target All Elite Wrestling's Joey Janela, to lead many to wonder what caused all of it. As it turns out, it was somewhat of a physical altercation.
Fightful Select was told that Janela walked up and introduced himself to Enzo Amore at a Blink 182 concert, to which he was met with a reply of "oh really?," and somehow things devolved into what was described as a fist fight. We reached out to Janela, who called it "the worst fist fight ever," while clarifying that Enzo hit Janela in the face.
A tweet exchange would follow.
I’m glad you introduced yourself cause I couldn’t pick you out of a line up. You don’t want no smoke. And now I know it, there’s only two things that smell like fish. Ones fish. @JANELABABY straight pussy.

We can only assume by that, Enzo is implying he would beat up Joey Janela, though maybe he's just actually being super nice and saying that he'd put him in a rap video that would later be featured on the huge platform.
Joey Janela would follow up:
Not a work, So i saw the dude and walked up and said “Hi I’m Joey Janela” at the blink 182 show and we proceeded to have (I’m not lennox lewis) to have the shittiest fist fight of the year, I’m not a pussy but we had fun!

I will have no chance to wrestle or “fight” Enzo With my exclusivity starting in October but I saw it to introduce myself! That’s all!

Enzo Amore wasn't done, as in the late hours of Tuesday and early hours of Wednesday, he'd continue sounding off.
Clout chasing in public to ultimately look like a pussy, must feel terrible. Ya not a good human, people are out to enjoy there night and you cause a scene and run while I’m engaging with friends & fans, ya mother should be proud.

I wasn’t scared I was absolutely bombed LOL, before the footage you see. We had a little scuffle (glasses already on the ground) he punched me in the face, I held my finger in his face and then my friend told me his boy was filming so I was hesitant, to continue

I started the whole thing, jokingly all night saying I was gonna find Enzo and fight him to get a TMZ story. As we were leaving he was 3 steps ahead of me and I said “Hey, I’m Joey Janela, wanna fight” not really a polite way to introduce yourself after the twitter antics

Not a safe environment for a fight, needless to say, I didn’t start the fight & I was smart enough not to have one with a drunk’n fool/vagina (s/o Angela my homegirl, screaming like a voice of reason to a very reasonable man.) @JANELABABY dick riding aint a form of transportation pic.twitter.com/l3jyJVVm3S

Thanks to everyone who #HowYaDoin’d me @LilTunechi @blink182 concert, & s/o the fan who rolled up on me bought me the beer.... 1 more than I bought myself all night, & 10 less than Joey JaFuckboy bought himself all night pic.twitter.com/vQpi8Tu9l7

Janela and Enzo have went back and forth in the past, with Janela challenging Enzo to a match at Josh Barnett's Bloodsport. But don't expect that to happen any time soon, as Bloodsport's Josh Barnett chimed in on Twitter.
I've zero issues with @JANELABABY. In fact, I dig the dude and his support. Keep kicking ass JJ. --

As for a comedy match on Bloodsport...never.
No fucking way in Hell.
There's plenty of other places for that. Bloodsport isn't one of them. https://t.co/GeOpRcWgtd
Janela RTd my tweet too.

See...we lift each other up, not tear one another down.
Below is a partial video of the altercation.
