Tommaso Ciampa hasn't been seen on NXT programming since losing to Karrion Kross at NXT TakeOver: In Your House, and he's more motivated than ever to return.
Taking to Instagram, Ciampa reflected on a 2018 photo of him clutching the NXT Title -- affectionately referred to as "Goldie" by Ciampa during his reign -- and how he created a false narrative in his mind to use as motivation.
Now, after weeks of not being on TV, Ciampa has created a new narrative to motivate himself for his eventual return to the gold brand.
It is unknown when Ciampa will return to television.
