Tommaso Ciampa has been a well-known name in the wrestling circuit, even though the WWE superstar has surprisingly spent very little time on the WWE main roster. His work in the independent circuit and NXT has won the former ROH World Television champion a lot of acclaim. The hard-hitting wrestler would have been looking for a sustained run in the main roster. However, his aspirations have been cut short by a recent injury.
Ciampa was paired up with The Miz in his recent run. And it was his long-time friend Johnny Gargano who first broke the news of Ciampa’s injury in the latest edition of Raw.
