Is AEW in Tommaso Ciampa‘s future? This WWE Hall of Famer believes so.
On the latest episode of Grilling JR, WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross weighed in on the possibility of former NXT Champion Tommaso Ciampa jumping to AEW when his current contract with WWE expires.
“He’s a good hand.” Jim Ross said. “I think that’s logical. I don’t know for sure. Where else? What are his other options? They’re there. He could also, he could get a deal in Japan. He worked their style well. But if I know AEW, as I do, he’s somebody you wouldn’t pass on. You know he’s a good worker, and he’s done, and he’s got a lot of name recognition, name identity. And in the business, I like his work.
“So I think it seems to me, Conrad and I got said I got nothing to base this on, other than my gut instincts that he will be on the AEW roster sooner than later, because he can have great matches with anybody. And I like his work. He’s solid. He didn’t worry about breaking an egg. He’s a tough kid. So I hope that we get him. I really do.” [H/T: WrestlingNews.co]
