After recovering from a gruesome injury sustained back in August 2022, Tommaso Ciampa returned to Raw this week. He answered The Miz’s open challenge with a huge roar from the Cleveland crowd. After a decent in-ring display, The Blackheart picked up a much-needed win over The A-lister.
After a successful outing last night, Ciampa was interviewed backstage. The 38-year-old issued his first comments and he sounded like the man on a mission. Feeling rejuvenated after a successful recovery, the Sicilian Psychopath declared war. He wants to lay his hands over everything and plans on making it to the WrestleMania main-event one day.
One may feel that Tommaso Ciampa is overvaluing himself. However, that’s not the case. At 38, he’s still the guy. Being regarded as probably the greatest NXT Champion of all-time, the Psycho Killer knows ball. Apart from being an in-ring chef, he can sell a rivalry off his oratory skills. He’s proven it all during his NXT days. However, Ciampa now wants to become a household name and make his presence known to everyone.
Moreover, he’s finally got his original theme song back upon his return. The former 2-time NXT Champion moves ahead with a single motto and that’s – ‘No one will survive’. Also, he doesn’t needs to worry too much about his creative plans anymore, especially with Triple H calling the shots. The King of Kings has been a huge admirer of Tommaso Ciampa from a very long time.
Tommaso Ciampa declares to get things done by yourself
Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano as the DIY in WWE NXT (via- WWE) During the same interview above, the Dominant Male shed a little tease of what’s to expect next. While listing down his future goals, Ciampa said if anyone wants to achieve big, it needs to be done by oneself only. Because, nobody will do it for you. Connecting the dots, he’s heading towards a reunion.
As been rumored for weeks now, WWE is planning to reunite DIY on the main-roster. For the unversed, the #DIY (do it yourself) consisted of Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa back during NXT. They even became 1-time NXT Tag-Team Champions. Now, Triple H wants to recreate that magic once again for the main-roster viewers.
Furthermore, DIY is currently lined to be the next major challengers for Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens. A potential show-stealer of a tag match is under discussion between the two teams at this year’s SummerSlam. If happens, it would probably be for the Undisputed Tag-Team Championships.
