Tommaso Ciampa: Issues he dealt with before his surgery

While talking to WWE, Tommaso Ciampa revealed that before he got injured he used to tell himself that he has a ‘crappy neck’ and used to not focus on the small pains. But the pain kept getting worse and when he got injured during the match, he started getting a lot of stingers. He said that it was like a shock down his arm. But later the symptoms got weird, he was not able to open his pinkie and ring finger of his left hand, and the fingers used to get shaky when he used to open them. He was also not able to like down straight and when he used to lie down for an hour his hands used to get numb.
