4-time WWE champion posts cryptic update following recent heel turn on SmackDown
A former WWE champion recently turned heel on SmackDown. He has now sent a cryptic post about his tag team partner. This was the former tag team champion, Tommaso Ciampa.
Ciampa and Johnny Gargano started their WWE run in NXT where they formed DIY. Since then, they have had a rocky relationship. The two of them have betrayed each other on multiple occasions. However, they reunited as a tag team after they both made it to the main roster and eventually won the WWE Tag Team Championship.
However, the last few weeks have not been good for DIY. Ciampa has been upset that they have not been able to regain the tag titles. Additionally, he has also been upset about Gargano's friendship with the Motor City Machine Guns.
Two weeks ago on SmackDown, Ciampa attacked the Street Profits during their tag title match against Motor City Machine Guns. When Gargano came out to diffuse the situation, his tag partner shoved him to the mat and stormed off. Last week on the blue brand, Ciampa faced off against Montez Ford and came up short. Following the match, he attacked Ford which caused Dawkins to come out as well.
When Gargano tried to stop his partner, he shoved him to the mat again and walked away in anger. Following this, the former NXT Champion has now posted a picture of himself snapping at his tag partner and also a picture of Gargano with the Motor City Machine Guns.

Johnny Gargano also reacted to Tommaso Ciampa snapping at him again on WWE SmackDown
Johnny Gargano has had a close friendship with Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin due to their time in the indies together. Hence, he has been happy to see them succeed in the WWE. However, this has not sat well with Ciampa who has been trying to get a tag title shot again.
After snapping at his partner on SmackDown, Ciampa seemingly asked Gargano to pick which side he was on. The former North American Champion has teased that he has made up his mind by posting a photo of himself standing in the ring with the Motor City Machine Guns.

It will be interesting to see if DIY will be able to coexist together and win back the tag title.
