WWE plants seed for massive breakup as 39-year-old star refuses to tag in his partner on SmackDown

This week’s SmackDown showcased growing tension between Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano. The rift between the best friends was evident throughout the show, particularly during their match against Pretty Deadly. The events strongly suggest WWE is building toward a possible #DIY breakup.

During the match, Ciampa dominated Pretty Deadly single-handedly, showing the shades of a potential heel turn. Meanwhile, his partner Johnny Gargano was stunned with these antics, as he never received a tag throughout the short match.

In fact, The Blackheart subtly conveyed to the WWE Universe and his best friend that he does not need anybody to handle his business. Moreover, after the victory, instead of celebrating, Ciampa chose to walk away, leaving Gargano visibly puzzled by the situation.

Additionally, this grumpy behavior continued even after the match. During a segment backstage, the 39-year-old snapped after learning that they would not be facing Motor City Machine Guns next week. This moment drew a lot of fans’ attention, leaving them with multiple questions about the future of #DIY.

Speaking on the Gorilla Position, Gargano said that the WWE Universe will always be excited to see #DIY, whether they are fighting side by side or against each other. Therefore, being involved in an intense feud on the main roster could be enticing to witness as a new chapter in their careers.

I will always say, you never know what can happen in the future. Obviously, Tommaso Ciampa, Johnny Gargano, together or against each other, people want to see it, which is a good thing.
