WWE Star Was Working Through Injury For Almost A Year

WWE

An update has emerged on Tommaso Ciampa, who is currently out of action recovering from an injury.

Ciampa has been on the shelf since September, with Johnny Gargano confirming on the October 24 edition of Raw that his former tag partner had suffered an injury.

Later that week, the former NXT Champion revealed that he had surgery to fix a hip labrum that ‘looked like shredded cheese’.

Fightful Select (subscription required) has now noted that this hip injury had been bothering Ciampa for almost a year.

The report noted that Fightful wasn’t given a timetable for his return when they asked.

Ciampa officially joined the WWE Raw roster in April, and went on to form an alliance with The Miz under the previous WWE regime.

After Triple H took over creative in late-July, Ciampa received more of a push, notably facing Bobby Lashley for the US Championship on the August 8 edition of Raw.

Ciampa last wrestled on TV on the August 22 episode, teaming with The Miz to face Lashley and AJ Styles.
