#1 Tommaso Ciampa
The former WWE NXT Champion will be appearing at the big EVOLVE event this coming Saturday night, despite being sidelined from NXT competition with a neck injury.
Ciampa has been out of the ring since he relinquished the WWE NXT Title on the March 13th episode of NXT, citing his neck injury and forthcoming surgery as the reason he had to vacate the title.
On April 1st, after undergoing successful neck surgery, Ciampa Tweeted a grim message to fans admitting that doctors told him if he returned to the ring following the neck injury he would be living on "borrowed time", due to the severity of the injury.
At last word, Ciampa has not ruled out an in-ring return and remains in recovery.
