Big Backstage Update on Tommaso Ciampa’s Injury Status

May 26, 2017

According to PWInsider.com, WWE NXT star Tommaso Ciampa suffered another injury during last week’s NXT Takeover: Chicago match against the Authors of Pain, and the injury will require surgery. Ciampa is scheduled to go to Birmingham, Alabama following last night’s NXT TV tapings for the operation and subsequent rebab process. Ciampa originally suffered an ankle injury prior to his Takeover match, but he worked the Tag Title match in Chicago anyway.

As noted in our NXT TV taping spoiler report, Ciampa appeared at last night’s NXT tapings wearing crutches, and cut a promo on why he attacked Johnny Gargano. He added that when he returns from injury, he vows to be the most dangerous person in pro wrestling.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
