From 2012-2018, Enzo Amore used several unique catchphrases and nicknames on WWE television, including his “My name is Enzo Amore…” introduction and his signature “Certified G” and “Bonafide Stud” soundbites.

The former Cruiserweight champion also regularly mentioned “zero dimes” during promos (e.g. "If me and Big Cass had a dime for every time we got beat up as kids, we would have... zero dimes!").

Speaking on the Store Horsemen podcast in 2018, Amore explained how Vince McMahon was not a fan of the phrase but he allowed him to keep using it due to the merchandise money it brought in.

He said (quotes via Wrestle Zone):

“For instance, ‘zero dimes’, you remember that thing? Like, Vince didn’t get it. So I used it in NXT a bunch, when I got to the main roster, Vince was like ‘…what’s that mean?’ So he doesn’t get it but we’re making money off merchandise with it.”
