Ciampa was always simply seeking a chance to demonstrate his abilities, which were prominently displayed at the “WWE Raw” broadcast on August 1.
By the end of the evening, Ciampa had defeated AJ Styles and Chad Gable to claim the top spot in the race for Bobby Lashley’s US Championship. Ciampa spoke on “Raw Talk” following the performance to talk about the most memorable night of his Main Roster career. He summed up his feelings with the word “Earned” when asked to describe them.
Ciampa kept going, he defeated AJ Styles, Chad Gable, and Dolph Ziggler. He wins, Ciampa declared. All he needs is a chance, as he has already stated, and will do so again. Next week, I’ll have my chance. Although The Miz provided outside aid for Ciampa to surprise Styles, the former NXT Champion demonstrated that he possesses all the necessary skills to be a top singles star in the WWE.
Sarah Schreiber brought up Lashley’s earlier remarks about facing any challenge head-on during the interview. That’s what Bobby said, and that’s what Ciampa said.
Part of his Response
“Anyone – that’s what Bobby said,” Ciampa responded. “I heard what Bobby said. The problem is, None of them are me. I’m the best sports entertainer there has ever been. Nobody makes a title more prestigious than the man you’re looking at, and I am the blackheart. Bobby Lashley, enjoy your last week because as of next Monday, your new United States Champion.”
Everything to prove
He listened to Bobby’s remarks. He is the best sports entertainer there has ever been. He is the blackheart, and the man you’re looking at makes a title more distinguished than anyone else. The title match between Ciampa and Lashley will now air on “WWE Raw” on August 8 of the following week.
Ciampa’s abrupt presentation shift and winning run shouldn’t have come as a major shock. There has been talking about The Game using his former NXT Black & Gold talent more prominently on the main roster ever since Triple H took over as WWE’s Head of Creative. In addition, a Fightful Select article published on Monday stated that Triple H has major plans for Ciampa.
