If you recall several weeks back, NXT Superstar Tommaso Ciampa commented in an interview that he does not want to leave NXT and move up to the main roster. He also mentioned retiring from in-ring action if he was told that he would be moving to RAW or SmackDown.

 Recently on After The Bell with Corey Graves, Triple H weighed on the former NXT Champion's comments.

"I think there's a part of Ciampa that it comes down to wear and tear and physicality of in his current place physically, could he handle the schedule? Could he handle the grind of a full-time schedule on Raw or SmackDown? It's a different beast. Even though that schedule has dropped and has become more manageable especially if you have a family and everything else."

"But for him he probably looks at it like look, if I get on the main roster, I have a run that is this long. If I was on NXT with a lessened schedule and a much more manageable schedule, I can do it for this long. He would rather do it for a long period of time and then transition into other things that he really loves."

"Like, when the time is right, he will be a phenomenal coach; he will be a phenomenal backstage producer. We are letting him get familiar with it now. He goes to Evolve now and he will go there and sign autographs, but during the day he is a producer. He goes and pulls the role that we do. He is going there and passing down the knowledge to those kids. He is an agent and a producer and helps them with their shows and does everything else and when they are producing their television event or the digital event or whatever the event is that night, he is helping them that night. He is taking the things that we are teaching him and he is using it someplace else and that is going to translate into his career, too."
