Not everyone can be loved in the world of professional wrestling, and luckily there are some wrestlers who are really good at being hated. Tommaso Ciampa successfully turned the fans against him when he beat down his partner Johnny Gargano, and now he’s directing his hatred at the podcast world. The NXT star recently took to Twitter to let Edge know that he has no interest in appearing on the E&C Pod of Awesomeness, and he got some interesting responses.
Note to all podcasters (including atEdgeRatedR):
I have absolutely zero interest in "telling my story" or helping you draw listeners.

Chris Jericho’s Talk is Jericho podcast is one of the most popular podcasts in the world of wrestling, but Jericho told Ciampa he’s not interested in having him on as a guest until he makes it to the big leagues.
That’s great, cos I’ve got no interest in having you. Maybe when you make it into the big leagues kid! https://t.co/0WzOypbHgh

Edge later responded to the original tweet by saying that Ciampa was never considered, but Johnny Gargano’s appearance on Edge and Christian’s podcast did big numbers.
Settle down you might sprain your beard. Firstly you were never considered to be rocket strapped, BUT we had your old partner @JohnnyGargano on. Huge numbers. Secondly use the damn @ button next time. You smell jealous kid. It’s a mix of buffalo pheromones and Drakaar Noir. https://t.co/mTALF3cYLL

This was a pretty fun exchange, but it didn’t stop there as Ciampa continued to trash the legacies of Jericho and Edge.
Just a couple of wrestling legends* following along and hanging onto my every word.
