Ciampa is a former NXT Champion and held the belt from July of 2018 until March of 2019. Ciampa was forced to relinquish the championship due to a neck injury.
Originally, the fatal four-way match was supposed to determine a number one contender to Joe’s title. Joe vacated the championship on Sunday night after being informed by WWE medical officials about an injury. Joe said his time away would be brief, but his return date was undetermined at this time.
