Tommaso Ciampa might have just lost the WWE Tag Team Titles, but he’s already earned himself a new moniker—and it’s straight out of Big Poppa Pump’s playbook.
During a WWE live event in Germany, #DIY (Ciampa & Johnny Gargano) faced off against Motor City Machine Guns. At one point in the match, Ciampa channeled his inner Scott Steiner, dropping down to do push-ups mid-ring. The moment caught fire, and WWE wasted no time embracing it, dubbing him “Big Ciampa Pump” on Instagram.
The nickname might be new, but Ciampa is no stranger to the spotlight. Alongside Gargano, he held the WWE Tag Team Championships until Friday Night SmackDown, when The Street Profits (Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins) dethroned them for the gold.
With Big Ciampa Pump now in the mix, could we see more of Ciampa leaning into his Steiner side? Should he make this a regular part of his gimmick? Drop your thoughts in the comments!
