Tommaso Ciampa of WWE tag-team DIY recently appeared as a guest on the Battleground podcast for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During the discussion, the WWE Superstar spoke about rumors of Motor City Machine Guns duo Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin rumored to be WWE-bound, as well as the possibility of a dream match pitting MCMG vs. DIY.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview where he touches on these topics with his thoughts.
On a potential DIY vs. MCMG dream match: "That's the natural go to. Whether it's our styles or our size, everyone seems to pair us and those guys together. They've influenced tag team wrestling for two decades now. We've taken stuff from them, concepts and ideas. I've never wrestled either one of them, in singles or tag, my entire career. It would be really cool to have that happen on a WWE stage for the first time."
On rumors of MCMG signing with WWE: "I know Johnny [Gargano] has a pretty good relationship with Shelley and has known him forever. I love those guys. He loves those guys. We see the same rumors that yall see. If we can get the tag division to a point where we have four, five, six different top acts at once, that's when you're in it. The more competition, the merrier. I welcome that. It elevates your game and forces you to elevate. I think the crowd will take to them extremely fast and well. I hope it happens. I probably want it to happen more than some of the fans."
