Before he was one of the faces of NXT, Tommaso Ciampa played a lawyer on WWE SmackDown in 2005. Ciampa was the lawyer for Muhammad Hassan and did a segment with The Undertaker during their feud.
Speaking to , Ciampa♎ reflected on his segment with Undertaker.
"At the time, I 100% did not realize what I was doing. Like now, I mean - if somebody told me tomorrow, 'Hey you're going to go and do a thing with The Undertaker' - the scope and the magnitude of it would be weighing on my shoulders. I would understand what type of opportunity it was. The next time I appeared on SmackDown, and I might be wrong someone might correct it, I think was Johnny (Gargano) and I tagging vs. Cesaro and Sheamus. And that is like 2019, before surgery. So 14 years later. If you told me in 2005 you're doing this thing with the Undertaker, but you're not coming back into this ring for 14 years. I don't know if I would have stuck around for that."
Ciampa continued, listing Undertaker as one of his dream matches. "I don't have many like dream dream scenarios or matches. I mean like him (Undertaker) and Edge and Randy (Orton) and Rey Mysterio are like four guys that always come to mind."
In a previous interview, Ciampa revealed when he knew Undertaker was "one of the boys." You can find his full comments by clicking here.
