Tommaso Ciampa recently spoke with Alistair McGeorge of Metro UK for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During the discussion, the former NXT World Champion spoke about seeing a lengthy run on the Raw roster for himself, being ready for anything that lies ahead of him on the WWE main roster and how he is ready to work big shows like WrestleMania and SummerSlam.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview where he touches on these topics with his thoughts.
On seeing a lengthy Raw run for himself: “There’s so many people that I can look at right now on those Raw and SmackDown rosters and think, ‘Man, what if?’ I haven’t been in the ring with so many of them. Whether it’s Edge or Rey Mysterio, I’ve never really had a singles match with AJ Styles, done stuff with Roman Reigns. There’s so many – you can just go down the list forever and ever.”
On growing up as a big Royal Rumble fan with dreams of working big events like WrestleMania and SummerSlam: “It’s all stuff that now, the more I’ve done it, the longer I’ve been doing it, you keep checking off boxes and keep building that resume. It’s stuff that, if five to 10 years from now, I can check off all those things and have those be part of it, that’d be awesome."
On how he is ready for whatever may lie ahead of him on the WWE main roster: “I’m very much focused on what I can control. There’s a lot of stuff – not just in wrestling, but in life – you just don’t control. I know I’ve done the ground work, I’m prepared for it, I’m ready for it, I’m excited for it.”
