The perfect time to return to WWE for Tomasso Ciampa
Karrion Kross defeated Keith Lee and captured the NXT Championship two nights ago, at NXT Takeover: XXX. There will be no rematch as Lee is now on the main roster.
As a result, this is the perfect time for Ciampa to return. If you remember, Ciampa was last seen at NXT Takeover: In Your House, where he was decimated by a dominant Karrion Kross.
With Keith Lee now gone to the main roster, the timing can not be better. Ciampa could be the perfect challenger for the newly crowned NXT Champion.
However, there could be a small roadblock in this rivalry. It was reported that Kross had suffered an injury during his match at NXT Takeover: XXX.
We have seen many Superstars relinquishing their titles because of serious injuries. Superstars like Finn Balor, Daniel Bryan, Edge, and many more have suffered this fate in the past. It won’t be surprising if Kross becomes another name on this list.

If one spot or both the spots open up in the NXT Championship picture, then Ciampa is definitely a name that will be in the title conversation. We do not know what the future holds for Tommaso Ciampa. However, the biggest possibility is that he will lock horns with his former adversary.
