let's take a look at the career and some interesting facts about once WWE star Big Cass.
William Morrissey, born on August 16, 1986 in the Glendale neighborhood of New York City's Queens
borough, is an American professional wrestler. He is best known for his tenure with WWE,
where he performed under the ring name Big Cass. He is also known for
his tenure with Impact Wrestling, where he performed under the ring name W. Morrissey.
Morrissey attended Archbishop Molloy High School and served as a peer tutor, homeless shelter
volunteer, and National Honor Society member. After graduating from high school, he received
a scholarship to attend New York University and entered the pre-medical track before shifting to
economics. He also played basketball and played as a center for the NYU Violets.
Morrissey was in a relationship with fellow wrestler Leah Van Dale,
known as Carmella, until 2017.
Since April 2021, Morrissey has been in a relationship with AEW backstage interviewer,
Lexy Nair, who is the stepdaughter of the WWE Hall of Fame member, Diamond Dallas Page.
Morrissey trained as a professional wrestler at Johnny Rodz's wrestling school in Brooklyn, New
York. He debuted in Rodz's World of Unpredictable Wrestling (WUW) promotion on May 30, 2009,
under the ring name Big Bill Young. He went on to wrestle a number of matches
for the promotion before signing with WWE in June 2011. Morrissey signed with Florida
Championship Wrestling (FCW), which was WWE's developmental territory at the time
and made his first televised FCW appearance in July 2011.
In WWE, he came to prominence for his partnership with Enzo Amore, whom he teamed with from 2013 to
2017. Together, they won the NXT Year-End Award for Tag Team of the Year in 2015.
He was brought up to Raw alongside Enzo Amore the day after WrestleMania 32.
He was later moved to the SmackDown brand, where he had a brief feud with Daniel Bryan,
before being released by the company in June 2018. After leaving WWE, he resumed teaming with Amore
(now known as nZo) on the independent circuit. On April 25, 2021, at Rebellion, as W. Morrissey,
he made his Impact Wrestling debut as the surprise replacement. Morrissey had departed Impact
Wrestling in June 2022 and is now working with All Elite Wrestling (AEW) as a heel character.
As of 2022, his net worth is estimated to be around $600 thousand.
During their time in Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW),
Morrisey roomed with fellow wrestler Jonathan Good, known as Dean Ambrose in WWE and Jon
Moxley in AEW. The two lived together until 2014 while Ambrose had already joined the main roster.
Morrisey said he enjoyed living with Ambrose, calling it "the best time of his life."
On December 8, 2018, Morrissey suffered an epileptic seizure while at his merchandise
table during a House of Hardcore event. Following his seizure, with the help of
pro wrestler Diamond Dallas Page, Morrissey became sober and got treated for depression.
Morrissey, as Big Cass, is a playable character in the video games WWE 2K16, WWE 2K17, and WWE 2K18.
