We are in Orlando, Florida and your announcers are Nigel McGuinness, Percy Watson, and Tom Phillips.
Tommaso Ciampa makes his way to the ring and he does so with the assistance of crutches.
Ciampa says that he would like to take a moment to call Johnny Gargano out ot the ring because he feels like he should give him an explanation.
We look up the ramp and no one comes to the ring.
Ciampa says that Johnny is not here tonight. He asks if you like that. He asks if the people want to replace Johnny Gargano. Tommaso wants to say something about being replaced. Over the last two weeks of his life, he has learned more life lessons in the thirty-two years prior. On the Thursday before Takeover, he suffered an injury and questions circulated about whether he would be ready for Takeover. He did not have those questions because he knew that he would fight. That was what DIY was all about. In 24 hours, those questions started to turn to hypotheticals.
Ciampa says you started to replace him with dream partners for Johnny. It took less than one day to replace him and for him to become an afterthought. Ciampa says that he is not an afterthought. Ciampa says he put it aside. He looked at his best friend and he said that they were going to fight at Takeover. He let it all pass by and then at Takeover, in the ladder match with AOP, they fought because that is what they do.
Ciampa says he took a fall in the ladder match. He says he felt something in his knee pop. He says he has done this for twelve years and he knew that he would be gone for a long time, but he had to keep fighting. He put it all aside for the people and his best friend. It wasn’t enough but they fought. At the end of the night, when he looked at Johnny in the ring and he saw his best friend and his brother. He looked out at the people and Johnny. He says that you were going to replace him and Johnny was going to do the same damn thing. Johnny would not have hesitated if Tommaso had to go away.
In that moment, Tommaso says he made his decision and he knew what had to be done. He says it was not his fault. It was your fault and it was Johnny’s fault. They had something special with DIY and you ruined it. If he was going to go away for a long time, Johnny Wrestling was going to go away for a long long time. You think that this was something he wanted. It was them going from the ground up to live their dream. They would talk for two years about their moment. Takeover Chicago was supposed to be their moment. It wasn’t their moment. It certainly wasn’t their moment. Takeover Chicago was his moment.
Tommaso says he is a 32 year old man and there is something that he knows. This ring is not replaceable. Tommaso Ciampa is not and never will be replaceable. Johnny Gargano is not replaceable. He says the people are replaceable. He will not give a sob story about going to fix himself and be bigger and better than before. He promises that when he retuns, he will be the most dangerous son of a bitch. He is professional wrestling whether you like it or not.
We have a video package for Danny Burch. He says he was a bar room fighter. When it gets tough, punch it out. He says that this is what he was put on this planet to do. He fells comfortable in the ring. He is here to win.
We go to commercial.
