One of 2017’s best moments, in my book anyway, came when Tommaso Ciampa ended Johnny Gargano, and their #DIY partnership, moments after the team failed to reclaim the NXT tag team titles at TakeOver: Chicago.
Injuries put the story on hold, but with Gargano preparing for the biggest singles match of his WWE career in four weeks at TakeOver: Philadelphia when he’ll face Andrade “Cien” Almas for the NXT title, there’s been a lot of speculation about when Ciampa could return.
And even if the Sicilian Psychopath isn’t full cleared by Jan. 27, there are other ways for wrestlers to make their presence felt.
Heck, Ciampa’s already doing it with... putting a social media damper on Johnny Wrestling’s positive outlook for the new year:
Happy New Year, man. pic.twitter.com/fDLd3wbyoh

That’s just disturbing. And awesome.
